The architect Valentino Benati, following a brief academic experience and a profitable collaboration with the architects Gallo and Tomasi, founded his own professional studio in Milan, where he has realised important interventions in the sector of architecture and urban planning. A few examples of his work are the expansion of Rinascente Duomo, the office building in Via Olona, the Milan headquarters of Bosh and the new box and services building of the Monza racetrack, in collaboration with Angelo Cortesi.
Currently being executed are his urban transformation projects for the abandoned industrial areas where the OM and Marelli works once stood. Together with the architects Federico Colletta and Fabio Gobbin, he designed Hotel F in the Garibaldi Repubblica area, a 25-storey complex that makes energy saving and the use of energy from alternative sources its strong points.
