the work Solis Silos
One of the symbols of the new life of gres art 671 are the seven silos placed at the entrance. Seven corten steel giants, 10 metres high, 3.5 metres in diameter and weighing 39 tons, designed by Mario Nanni, manufactured and lit by Viabizzuno, welcome the public and become a hallmark of the walkway towards gres art. Architectural elements that have, in turn, a story to tell. Indeed, they are the constructions that, during Expo 2015, inhabited the centre of Milan, in Brera, and that, at gres art 671, once again, speak of regeneration and restitution.

These objects, adapted to the urban scale, conceal a meticulous attention to detail, typical of domestic objects. The volumes are made of iron in its natural state, a material evolving both in its surface and colour.

Influencing both the surfaces and the moments shared with the public, for the seven silos, the passage of time is essential. These imposing cylinders create a perspective cone that guides and punctuates the walkway to the entrance, while offering a restful place for those who wish to sit on their plinths.

the work Solis Silos
Art and creativity cross the building to reach the landscape, the surroundings and the urban context. Not only do the seven silos dialogue with each other, but also and above all, with the architecture and the city, becoming an integral part of the space. An architecture to inspire, to welcome, to rest.
Viabizzuno is a company that for more than twenty years has been making design its own reason for living. Design is a way of being, thinking, and acting that permeates every action and thought in life. Design is building ourselves, improving considerably. To Viabizzuno, design should not be meant as a simple professional activity, but as a way to establish a relationship with life and others. design means to build something that lasts beyond temporary trends. every project is a promise, a suggestion of quality and value. It is the way to fix the disorder of the world. Viabizzuno works, designs, produces, researches, and innovates while training its staff. for years it has been creating its own design philosophy to assert itself day by day not only as an industrial reality. Viabizzuno also aims to create an ethical design process. Viabizzuno's strength relies on working toward a customized design, finding solutions that did not exist before, integrating light with architecture, and creating a recognizable image all over the world thanks to its formal and thinking integrity at the same time. Viabizzuno is a philosophy of life.
