The G-Point
Proposal for Galmod Bike Center
S.G.L., Verona, Italy, 2003

We were asked to propose a building as metaphor or narrative of the brand Galmod. The new Bike Center should provide predominantly space to manufacture the line of professional bicycles, but also create an exclusive meeting point for the worldwide clientele. Like a Club, the building offers a range of amenities from leisure facilities including sport and wellness, few hotel rooms, to bar and office-meeting space, and it will be on the second level of an industrial existing building. The design is the result of a digital morphing process, which takes the brand sign and generates form and space in a process of self-similar variations.
