“Architecture begins where engineering ends” W. Gropius.
SGLAB Studio embodies this idea, by combining the experiences and the competences of partners and collaborators to bring integrated and complex projects to life, that meet all customers’ needs.
The current team of professionals brings together the experience gained by the two founding members in designing metal and reinforced-concrete structures since the early ‘70s, and the competences of all the other associates. Starting from the end of the 90s, the activities of architectural designing and construction management have also been developed, with significant experiences in industrial, school, directional and residential building.
Moreover, the involvement and the specialisation for restoration works have increased over the years, for which the studio develops both the architectural designing and the integration with the necessary works of consolidation, recovery and structural restoration of historical buildings.
SGLAB also takes care of indoor projects and residential, commercial and directional custom furniture, in addition to graphics, corporate image and communication. The activities of the studio, also in collaboration with other structures, cover the fields of designing, building and plant engineering.
approach to the project
The design approach of studio SGLAB tends to highlight the durability and sustainability of wood, which results reliable and versatile, as well as very warm and elegant as finish, especially if it is in contact with the users (floors, wall cladding etc.).
SGLAB and Ravaioli
The collaboration begins in 2016, when the architect Gabriele Zanarini of SGLAB makes contact with Ravaioli. Since the very beginning, a connection was created which led to the birth of different projects where the studio includes cladding and decking solutions with products by Ravaioli.
The diversified offer of products and the expertise in proposing solutions to designers make Ravaioli an excellent point of reference for wooden solutions.
