Casalgrande Padana’s Creative Centres are open to industry professionals and go beyond the traditional idea of a showroom. They are more like a crossroads between the world of ceramics and architecture. Creative Centres host architecture, design, and production initiatives, combining exhibitions, communication, and technical information. More importantly, they tell the many stories around the collections Casalgrande Padana has created over the years, always revealing something new and surprising.
A few years after the Creative Centre was opened at the Casalgrande headquarters, a second one was added to expand the showroom and house the company’s range of tiles. These centres offer 500 sq.m, where visitors can view Casalgrande Padana’s unique offering in terms of quality and size and discuss projects.
The third Creative Centre was opened in Rome in Casa Baldi – a beautiful building designed by Paolo Portoghesi and built between 1959 and 1961 – to meet the growing demand across Italy. A wonderful opportunity to open this prestigious and highly significant venue to the community of designers and architects. Casalgrande Padana entrusted the restoration and repurposing project to Paolo Portoghesi himself, who enhanced the architectural and functional value of the building’s new intended use, developing solutions coherent with the original architecture.
And now, Casalgrande Padana is about to open a fourth creative hub at the service of creativity, culture and architecture in Milan. Milan’s Creative Centre will be located in Piazza San Marco in the Brera District, the city’s beating heart renowned for its charming atmosphere rich in cultural, architectural, and historical contaminations. This space allows creativity, ideas, experiences, and projects to merge and be shared and admired, generating enthusiasm for innovation and research embodied by the collections.
