Ermenegildo Zegna unveils the new 8,000m² Global Headquarters to Press and Buyers. The AW08/09 collections from the World of Zegna, Ermenegildo Zegna, Zegna Sport, Z Zegna and Accessories are presented in the new Showroom to industry members in town to attend Milan's Fashion Week.
Entering from Via Savona, the glass-framed entrance conceals a secret garden, which pays tribute to nature, epitomising the values of the founder Ermenegildo Zegna, who believed that “with fine fabrics we must respect nature's gifts”. The fourth generation of Zegna at the helm of the Company are committed to uphold Zegna's values and traditions.
Designed by acclaimed architects, Antonio Citterio and Partners with Studio Beretta, the building blends Zegna's sophisticated and understated elegance with classic modernity.
Polished stone floors greet the visitor, spanning throughout the ground floor, with northern skylights projecting light throughout the space, whilst glass and steel walls encase the building in a bejeweled futuristic case.
Suspended glass walkways & bridges of steel girder construction, connect the expanses of space with 'Passerelle' corridors, inspired by the bridges built in the Lanificio Zegna in 1910, which enabled visitors to view the magical process of wool being transformed, through spinning, dying and weaving, into finished fine Italian fabrics.
A 600m2 theatre will stage presentations of the Zegna collections and will serve as a centre for cultural initiatives, in line with the founder Ermenegildo Zegna's philanthropic values. The 2300m2 offices are built around an interior courtyard with teak wood decking, overlooked on all sides by glass, emulating Italian Palazzos within a 21st century context.
