Lamm furniture
E4000
A large supply of furniture for a rapidly reconfigured
setting. LAMM contributed to the design for the
campus of the Humanitas University, a highereducation
institution dedicated to Life Sciences
and partnered with the IRCCS Humanitas Research
Hospital in Rozzano (MI). The new campus (25,000
square metres), designed by Filippo Taidelli (studio
FTA), has a research centre, a teaching centre and a
simulated operating theatre—the crowning jewel of
the complex—for practising realistic scenarios.
As many as 828 E4000 study desks allow for the
comfortable and flexible use of the building for
teaching and of the lecture hall. LAMM also provided
free-standing furniture for easy layout changes.
The study desks, complete with tip-up top, were
installed in straight rows on the ground floor. The
writing tables are deeper and the “anti-tilt” feet make
the desks free-standing, thus avoiding the need to
drill into the floor.
