In continuity with its long-established relationship with
Bocconi University, LAMM has developed an exclusive
supply of furnishings for the new campus designed by
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa from the SANAA
firm. This major commission is in keeping with the wellestablished
relationship that over the years has seen
LAMM supply the Bocconi University with its integrated
“Blade Systems” for classrooms and “Genya” armchairs
for the Main Hall (both made based on a design by
Dante Bonuccelli - Avenue Architects). This Main Hall
was designed by Bonuccelli himself, developing the
concept conceived by the architects of the building,
Shelley McNamara and Yvonne Farell from the firm
Grafton Architects. Here, for the New Urban Campus,
inaugurated to the south of the university’s historic site,
an exclusive and complex installation within the MEO
building (Master - Executive - Office) has recently been
completed. In particular LAMM, in collaboration with Dante Bonuccelli - Avenue Architects,
was called upon to develop innovative educational systems to be placed
within the various spaces involved in the project, including study benches,
fixed armchairs and platforms, characterised by tailor-made solutions,
confirming the company’s ability to satisfy the increasingly complex and
articulated design requirements of the project, combining its essential touch
of stylish design with the highest standards of quality and comfort.
