Pharmacy in Castelfiorentino

The project concerns the renovation of a building which

was built in the beginning of the twentieth century.

Placed along Ridolfi road, it originally was the storage

room of the railroad station of Castelfiorentino and it

has been unused for a long time before the renovation.

The elongated rectangular plan occupies about 200

square meters; the half, located in the mid area, is

occupied by the shopping area: the chemist’s store,

the perfumer’s shop, the parapharmacy. The remaining

area holds an office, the laboratory for preparation

of drugs, the analysis room, the storehouse, the

changing room and some other service rooms.

Furniture, entirely designed by the studio, reminds

the historical iconography of pharmacy like the green

cross which make it immediately recognizable.

By the cross we solved the main lighting system in

the hall and a few exposition island elements placed

in the middle. Everything is green.
