Entry Description

With the Go Green project, Caima became one of the first world producers of cellulose fibers free of fossil fuels.
The architectural goal was to offer an envelope for the entire technical component beyond simple rain protection or noise control, making function evident through form, materiality and colour, in a contemporary and delicate, yet affordable and cheerful way.
Moreover, the boiler house is internally illuminated at night, further enhancing its role as the core of the energy production process, its iconic status on the industrial site and as a visually warm landmark in the vicinity.

Bio

The company’s activity spans in the areas of urban design /urban planning and architecture projects supported by the wide experience of the founding partners in both sectors, as designers and team leaders, and ensuring holistic and sustainable design and project coordination.
