Area located on the via Mario Pagano close to the City Life project, which is under construction, as well as to the Cadorna train station, which is one of the main hubs of Milan. The idea of the project is to create a building is harmoniously placed into the existing context, and at the same time is an object of contemporary architecture, both externally and internally. The external appearance of the proposed residential building, namely the facade reflects the name of the project – Life Lines. This is facilitated the linear arrangement of the windows, their frequency and depth. It is implied that business is an essential part of life, one line of the many other, which is characterized by variability in throughout its development. Meanwhile facades designed according to the context. Items such as: vertical windows, balconies, exterior finish and modular solutions in common with the surrounding architecture.
