Profile

BINOCLE is the office led by Italian architect Lorenzo Bini that deals with the transformation of existing spaces, from temporary structures to permanent buildings and gardens.

Born in 1971 and educated in Milan and Oslo, Lorenzo graduated in 1998 from Politecnico di Milano and worked in Milan and Rotterdam until 2003 when he started his own practice in Milano.

Alongside the professional activity, Lorenzo has taught at the Politecnico di Milano, at the Design Academy Eindhoven and at NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan.

In 2021 he became a member of the Council of the Order of Architects, Landscape Planners and Conservators of the Province of Milan with responsibility for cultural activities.

An office space for multiple purposes located in a courtyard of a historical Milanese building. The classic technique of the terrazzo floor is reinterpreted here with a distinctive layout. The apparently shapeless motive, is actually the replica of the very same principle of ‘six tableaux’, which is based on the act of sampling existing forms transferring them into a different contest.
