Studio Giovannini
Based on a design by engineers Gian Franco Giovannini and Roberto Tranquilli, Soglianese Costruzioni oversaw the complex engineering of the transparent systems for the new parish complex in Castenaso. The project involved the creation of a complex system of glass envelopes, alternating linear geometries with curvilinear roofs, with shaped windows and doors equipped with both manual and motorized opening systems.
The most technologically impressive element is the large fixed bronze glass window: a monumental work composed of a single pane of glass over 7.5 meters high.
This project, which required excellent logistical and technical management, defines the luminous identity of the sacred space, while ensuring extremely high performance thanks to the use of latest-generation thermally insulated aluminum profiles.
