Piuarch tops Fendi factory with green roof to blend into Tuscan landscape
Italian architecture studio Piuarch has completed a production factory for fashion brand Fendi in Florence, which features a green roof to "look like a raised garden".
Located in the municipality of Bagno a Ripoli, Piuarch collaborated with landscape architect Antonio Perazzi to design a factory that would resemble its surroundings.

"The Fendi production building looks like a raised garden, conceived to mend a long-standing rift in the terrain and recreate the hillside of the site in which it is located," said Piuarch partner and co-founder Gino Garbellini. "The architecture thus establishes an open dialogue with its natural surroundings," he told Dezeen. "The building, apparently underground owing to the landscaping choice of creating a continuous and extensive green roof, becomes an integrated ecological system that recreates the contours of the land to restore the shape of the original hillside."
