The Toolbox project has transformed an office center of about 4,500 square meters, the result of a previous restructuring of the Seventies of an industrial building near the railway, into a new workspace. The idea behind the intervention is to respond to Torino business reality changes. Torino professional life result to be less and less tied to corporate companies and closed offices, and increasingly characterized by the presence of free lance working independently.

Toolbox is conceived as a professional incubator. Its design has been though for a new generation of professionals (architects, web designers, artists, lawyers, accountants, professionals and independent contractors). Derived from an hybridation between traditional European working spaces (organized in small offices) and the American model of open space, Toolbox has been conceived to invent a new approach to work. The idea leading the architectural project was to understand how Toolbox design could join the idea of plurality within a coherent design.
