La Tribuna
New headquarters for historic Piacenza publishing house
The new headquarters of ‘La Tribuna’ consists of several individual offices, open space offices and a meeting room, for a total of 300 square metres of minimalism, essentiality and lightness, characteristics that also had to be respected by the lighting solutions. Being an operational work environment, it was necessary to find solutions that first of all ensured adequate visual comfort and a controlled UGR (<19), especially in the areas where there are computers and where employees spend most of their working day.

Visual comfort at desks and meeting rooms
Above the desks, both in the open space and in the individual offices, are the Albatros suspension lamps with OptiLightTM technology: a special laser engraving on a PMMA panel that allows the light to refract and distribute in a controlled manner, guaranteeing absolute visual comfort. Here the lamps have been fixed to a truss together with Plik spotlights and special sound-absorbing panels. The structure was specially designed to meet space requirements and to take advantage of daylight through skylights in the room.
