New Campus Bovisa Nord – Innovation Gasometer 2

The Gasometer 2 project is part of the vast redevelopment plan of the Bovisa – Goccia area, intended for the construction of the new Bovisa Nord campus, and aims to transform the building into a prominent architectural and functional landmark in the urban context. The original steel structure has been enhanced with the addition of a glass ‘bell’ that maintains the historical essence of the design, enriching it with modern functionality and contemporary aesthetics. During the day, the building exudes grandeur and solidity; at night, the transparent façade lightens its form, making it appear perfectly integrated into its surroundings, light and harmonious. The continuous glass façade, realised by means of a mullion and transom system (‘stick system’), guarantees a clean appearance without visible fastening elements, thus enhancing the aesthetics and solidity of the building with a uniform, modern surface. The structure is also equipped with double-chamber glazing, which improves thermal and acoustic insulation, and anti-fall glass, for greater safety. In summary, Gasometer 2 presents itself as a new icon for the Bovisa Nord area, where tradition, innovation, technology and sustainable design come together harmoniously.
