King Kong - Business Centre

Tecniche Nuove is a publishing group founded in 1964, disseminating professional information to the mechanical sector primarily, and many other trade sectors across Italy. In June 2014, the organization celebrated its 50th anniversary, and marked this important milestone by inaugurating its new headquarters, the ‘Palace of Culture,’ a 15-storey tower, extending the company’s existing complex in via Eritrea in Milan, to the north of the city. GEWISS supplied the entire system of Chorus plates and devices in every office, as well as a system of actuators that electronically control curtains and lighting. The energy on each floor is managed by GEWISS’ 47 CVX distribution cabinets, while the 24 Series SC retractable towers protect and connect each space. Finally, in basement rooms, the emergency lighting system is provided by the autonomous emergency ceiling lights from the Startec Net range.

The Percassi Building Group is a construction firm founded in 1963 in Clusone, in Bergamo province, by Santo, Rino and Giuseppe Percassi. The Group has grown over the years, and today it operates in the entire real estate supply chain from contracts to turnkey property services, including a complete after-sales service. The Bergamo-based headquarters, in via Vittorio Emanuele II, sits in the shadow of the Venetian walls that surround the Città Alta (the Upper Town), close to Porta Sant’Agostino. The facility consists of a small building and an attractive outdoor area lit by Point lighting bollards, in our special Blue Green colour - a metallic finish that blends perfectly with the surrounding environment.

Tre Torri is an architectural project centred on design and innovation, perfectly integrated into the philosophy of the new neighbourhood that has been built around it. A modern setting, to be furnished in a simple yet elegant style: this was the challenge for GEWISS and its emergency lighting solutions. More than 2,500 Startec KNX EIB and Startec Check lamps were used to provide emergency lighting for the entire complex, coupled with supervisory software that enables the entire lighting system to be controlled.
