Beyond the puns - considering also the uncertain times that the whole world is experiencing - the construction site of the new Superstudio MAXI location is going grandly. But above all, it has implemented all the sustainability features to earn the precious Leed certification.
A space of 10.000 square meters, bright, multifunctional, central, well served which will have - at the same time as the opening of Design Week 2021 - the LEED certification (world regulation for the construction of ecological buildings) which recognises the highest eco-sustainable standards for new buildings in key points such as energy and water saving, the reduction of CO2 emissions, the improvement of the ecological quality of interior, materials and resources used. A standard at the highest level - it is natural, we are at MAXI - which required some changes including the outdoor parking available to the public for 40 and over bicycles and at the entrance a special "doormat" of great size (over three meters deep!) designed to retain particulates that could affect the high quality of the internal air exchange that the location guarantees.
In addition, the insulating "coat" of the outer casing will greatly lower energy consumption together with the latest generation HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) systems that allow a regulation of the internal temperature per minute, thanks to the control manageable via iCloud with a simple tablet, much more convenient than the old analogue control units used up to now in most event buildings.
Thus, with the end of works, scheduled for November 2020, the third space of Superstudio opens in the city which aims to increase the commercial and especially cultural offer, which will involve the entire city to be part of that paradigm shift that we are all bound to contribute to.
See you then at MAXI, from January 2021 with a calendar of events in progress open to all!
