> Building that can only be visited from the outside

White Moon, located at Viale Fulvio Testi 280, Milan, has been acquired by the major Italian real-estate funds company Kryalos, who specialize in property development and adaptive reuse. The renovation of White Moon is one of the latest works assigned to Scandurra Studio Architettura; this project is part of an overall transformation of the industrial area in North-East Milan. 
The dynamic and transparent design is characterized by a contemporary classicism that combines functionality and high aesthetic quality. The project will have a new transparent façade composed of simple and clear geometry, affording fully open views from the inside. The scope of the work includes additions or alterations to form, materials, and energy-saving systems. 
Thanks to SSA, White Moon is given a new interpretation and opened to the city, starting with a new entrance from Viale Fulvio Testi. The existing fence will be removed and a new central doorway will welcome visitors from the public exterior to the private interior. The building will be surrounded by a new green area, including a public walk that will connect to the existing long tree-lined avenue.

Lastly, Scandurra Studio will create a new covered roof terrace from which a view of the city can be enjoyed.
