Elisabetta Franchi

The Elisabetta Franchi headquarters was founded in 2008 in the building of an old pharmaceutical company. Based on the model of a simple box, the 6,000 m² building featuring modern and functional beauty is immersed in the Bolognese countryside and stylistically represents the peculiar characteristics of the brand: consistency, precision and doggedness. Glass, metal and wood blend together to define the shapes and spaces of the structure. Made with simple and essential materials, it is balanced through the use of light that reflects the materials starting with the external façade in glossy black aluminium, which gives a spectacular and functional effect to the entire complex.The two-year restyling fully respects principles of eco-sustainable architecture, giving a new splendour to the previous structure and allowing Elisabetta Franchi to express two other passions that she has in addition to fashion: architecture and design.
