In 2015, WiP's Architecture department was commissioned to redevelop the Maritano Sports Center in San Donato Milanese, owned by the municipality. The project involved functional and system adjustments aimed at enhancing the center's activities and strengthening its sports and recreational offerings.
The new Ice Arena features a structure made of laminated wood and low-impact ecological steel, thanks to the installation of a 60 kWp photovoltaic system. The polycarbonate envelope creates an intriguing play of lights at night, revealing the profile of the laminated wood hut inside.
On the other hand, the traditional bowling alley hosts various sports activities (dry gymnastics as a preparation for skating, pilates, dance) and new family services such as a kindergarten and a playroom. The social life of the center revolves around the refreshment area, dedicated to new dietary trends.
WIP took care of the preliminary concept and design phases, as well as all the necessary landscape authorizations for integration into the Parco Sud (South Park).
