PROJECT
An impactful, elegant and enhancing structure for the area, in a highly visible site.
Born from the need to create a strategic hub to support the growth of Gruppo Vergero, the new headquarters will be built on an area of +26,000 m2 at Venaria Reale, along the northern ring road of Turin.
The site, with dedicated areas to industrial operations and offices, will host the central logistics base, advanced plant engineering for environmental protection and the administrative headquarters of the Group.

Supported by the high visibility of the area and the desire of the Group to express its market positioning and welcome its team in an inclusive environment, the aim is to achieve an architecture of impact with a high aesthetic profile and a value for the territory.
At the beginning of 2021 an international design competition was launched in collaboration with the Fondazione per l’Architettura / Torino to receive and select design proposals, in particular for the office building and the preparation of the entire front on the ring road. The Competition has allowed to enhance to creativity of every qualified designer who wanted to put himself in the game leaving a sign in the architectural landscape of Turin.
At the end of the competition, the architects Lorenzo Barghini, from Pistoia, and Bernardo Aguilar Leon, from Lima (Peru), were officially proclaimed winners, emerging among the 39 projects presented, and becoming partners of the Group in the design of the future structure.
The architects were able to capture and translate into architectural design the needs and identity of Gruppo Vergero, proposing a structure at the same time of effect and elegance, open and transparent towards the exterior, welcoming and participatory in its interiors.
Solutions that are able to communicate and enhance some of the Group’s founding and representative traits such as ethics, innovation, enthusiasm and inclusiveness.
With a great impact enhanced by the visibility of the area, the architectural project will communicate the positioning of the Group as a leader in its sector, its orientation to innovation and its dynamism.
KEY PLAYERS
The construction site visible on the northern ring road of Turin announces the opening of our new and ambitious site, which will host a technologically advanced system, with which we will be able to allocate more and more resources to a sustainable life cycle.
We are thrilled to be able to give the environment and the territory something more, in terms of environmental protection, circular economy, job opportunities and synergies with businesses.
Silvia Chiefari
Chief Operations Officer
Gruppo Vergero
The project, which I had the pleasure of following from the very beginning, represents a great opportunity both architecturally, thanks to its high visibility, and in industrial terms for the technology it will host.
The operation of the site will increase the production system of the territory, transforming the area into a reference point for conferment, with significant synergy possibilities for the Turin hinterland.

Construction Manager – Industrial site
Studio Callegari
I will be proud to be able to present in our network what I believe will soon be an emblem of environmental protection in the industrial sector in the Turin area.
Thanks to the Venaria Reale site, we will be able to further contribute to reducing the environmental impact of businesses, increasing the circularity of resources and reducing the consumption of both energy and raw materials.

Innova Ecoservizi - Gruppo Vergero
From the beginning, the strategic location of the site has posed an exciting design challenge regarding the image of the building in relation to the complexity of the North ring road and how, through architecture, a rapid and efficient communication of Gruppo Vergero corporate identity could be achieved.
It will be an environmentally dynamic building with a green heart, where light, water, vegetation, and natural materials contribute to create comfortable and healthy areas, where people are the authors of an ecological culture that transcends the boundaries of the project.
