I has a three story tall reinforced concrete frame sructure, with a 6,233 square meters. The project was developed in the third floor of the building due to the dynamic exposed roof structure, that inspired the shapes along the different design elements.

The Prada Group is a contemporary interpreter of changing scenes, is a company that seeks to push boundaries not only in fashion but in all art forms, architecture included. The design in this office does not only embraces the current Prada design style in it’s offices, stores and instalations, but aims to explore a new direction for the brand, and architecture in fashion.
