Residential building from the '60s gets an energy-efficient remodel

Located in the Italian city of Turin, this residential building from the ’60s has undergone a sustainable renovation with energy-efficient upgrades. Though the new structure is virtually unrecognizable from its former design, the building kept its original skeleton and overall shape and volume. Now, it has been reinforced to improve its earthquake-resistance and completely restyled to give it a modern feel. Characterized by solid colors and large, square voids, the building now boasts a stylish, sandy color throughout, three finishing textures on the facade and a pale teal tone for the outer staircase.
