LAMM armchairs chosen for the new ‘vertical’ campus by Batlle i Roig Arquitectura.
LAMM armchairs chosen for the new ‘vertical’ campus by Batlle i Roig Arquitectura
A campus that is out of the ordinary, gaining its space by expanding in height. An uncommon condition for university campuses that tend to unfold horizontally, as is the case on Anglo-Saxon campuses. The Barcelona headquarters of TBS Education, the prestigious business school that attracts students from 52 different countries, grows vertically, structuring its functions around a ‘backbone’ made up of generous communal spaces where the student community can socialise and spend time relaxing. The project is by Batlle i Roig Arquitectura, the Catalan architecture firm that has always assimilated the language of ecology and is among the most committed to the fight against climate change.
On the Barcelona campus, every place of relationship connects with the outside through the large windows of the entrance façade, which in turn reflects the dynamism of student life. The interior activities project outwards thanks to the numerous garden terraces that use the varied composition of volumes with different heights. Between the lively areas, on the seventh floor of the new building, is a large Lecture Hall made functional by the comfortable and versatile Unica armchairs, chosen in the version with high back and headrest. Entirely upholstered and covered in black leatherette, the seats were installed in straight rows on steps (according to a 52 cm spacing).
The project benefits from the wide range of accessories available with Unica chairs. The 16 armchairs in the first row are equipped with folding writing tablets with anti-panic movement and a stratified HPL top. An electrical socket was also provided for each seat, located on the inside of the side panel. The remaining armchairs were equipped with an individual table (model T200) with a black painted metal frame, a writing surface in stratified HPL and an electrical socket.

A venue for events and meetings, embellished with LAMM armchairs, has been created in the former wine cellar of a 16th century villa, tapping into the spirit of the local area
Borgo Vignamaggio, midway between Florence and Siena in the spectacular Chianti hills, is the location of a new theatre that stands out for its attention to detail, material combinations and atmosphere, in keeping with the spirit of the surrounding environment. Thanks to the project by MDU Architects, Patrice Taravella (landscape architect) and Emmanuelle Sebillet (interior design), the former wine cellar, the result of a 19th century extension to the 16th century villa, begins a new life hosting events and meetings.
Taking pride of place under the brick vault are the elegant C100 – Baldanzi & Novelli armchairs. Chosen in the low backrest version with sides down to the floor, the theatre seats are distinctive for their linear design and remarkable ability to embellish any environment, whether historic or modern. The armchairs are fully padded and upholstered in Kvadrat – Steelcut Trio 3. The installation, in straight rows, took place both on the sloping floor and on tiers, with the structure fixed to the ground.
Once the old reinforced concrete vats were demolished – explains Cristiano Cosi, partner at MDU Architetti – the floor was lowered and a rise inserted for the last three rows. All these measures are designed to improve the visibility of the stage. From the floor made by reusing wood from the old oak barrels to the stage, where a wooden shell performs a dual function, housing the lighting fixtures and improving acoustics. It is characterised by squares composed of double wooden pyramids: a tribute to the Renaissance and an immediate nod to Biagio Rossetti’s masterpiece, the Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara.
