PAM Bologna Via Zanardi

The facade of this supermarket, clad in perforated corten steel, represents a perfect fusion of aesthetics and functionality. The surface, worked with laser cutting, is enriched with a pattern reminiscent of a stylized rain, a motif that evokes movement and dynamism while maintaining a sober and modern elegance. The small holes, arranged with precision, allow light to filter through, creating a play of shadows and reflections that changes throughout the day, giving the structure a mutable and captivating appearance.

Corten steel, with its characteristic rust patina, blends naturally into the urban context, while the perforation makes the facade not only a visual element but also functional, contributing to ventilation and light control. The design, inspired by nature, transforms the building into a work of art— a “rain” that settles over the city, with its modern character while respecting tradition. An architecture that tells a story of history and innovation, capturing the attention of those who observe it without ever losing sight of its functionality
