Since the beginning of the 1980s, the office has followed the urban development project of the new Tor Carbone district along Via Ardeatina, in an area of high historical and landscape value. After the master plan approval, the building design phase began, followed by the construction of the private buildings. These are residential and commercial buildings, including terrace houses, detached houses and apartment blocks, with a maximum height of four floors and pitched roofs with Roman tiles. The facades are characterized by a modern use of traditional materials such as brick and travertine.
