The Palatino Center is one of the projects for the redevelopment of the old marketplace in the district of Porta Palazzo in Turin. The Project has been followed in the Competition, Preliminary, Final and Work-in Drawing design phases. The 5-storey construction is characterized  by the external façade consisting of a layered system of glass blades, by a titanium-zinc roofing and sculptural optically colored pillars. Starting from the architectural findings of the two ipogee cellars, a system of ramps links the different floors till the terrace. Total cost of the building estimated: 15 ml Euro.
