Designed by Milanese architects Cino Zucchi and Park Associati, the building reconciles the seeming contradiction between the pursuit of progress and innovation and promoting a relationship with Nature and environmental protection.

Sneek Residence / Netherlands

Gateway to the water: the Dutch town of Sneek is shaped by water. Its landmark is the medieval water gate, which closed the waterway into the city during attacks; the old town can still be circumnavigated by water on the Stadtgracht and Sneek is a Mecca for wakeboarders.
