For this motive the line drives some project you has been that to maintain a constant relationship with the outside and its disposition to vary of lights and shades and the idea to create one "operational greenhouse". the offices are absorbed in a luxuriant vegetation, integral part of the project, that winds and he/she invites in the places of job.
