Giardini d'Inverno Milano
Innovation, comfort and energy efficiency: these are the hallmarks of Giardini d’Inverno, the new residential property complex born in the heart of Milan, which has made sustainability its key to understanding. This concept was also decisive for the choice of external facade claddings, consisting of more than 4,000 square meters of Novowood composite wood staves, a recyclable and environmentally friendly material, obtained from regenerated raw materials, which are given a second life. …

This concept was also decisive for the choice of external facade claddings, consisting of more than 4,000 square meters of Novowood composite wood staves, a recyclable and environmentally friendly material, obtained from regenerated raw materials, which are given a second life. The staves of the Skin Pro line, in Copper Brown color, have the marked veins and the chromatic dynamism characteristic of our Premium Finish, almost to simulate the bark of a trunk, dotted with the 110 greenhouses created in this latest generation condominium, which offers in the building panorama of Milan with a look to the future and the protection of our environment.
