KKR-owned company expanding further into Europe
CyrusOne is entering Italy with plans for a data center in Milan
the three-story facility will offer 27MW of capacity across 9,000 sqm (96,875 sq ft)
CyrusOne has acquired an 18.5-acre site located in the Municipality of Segrate
The data center will be delivered in three phases
“This is an exciting development for CyrusOne worldwide,” said Matt Pullen
“Entering the Milan market is an important enabler for us to meet our hyperscale customers’ demand
offering capacity and choice across the continent
We have seen relatively low enterprise adoption of the cloud in this market to date
demonstrating there are long-term growth opportunities for us here.”
Reports that CyrusOne had acquired the land in Segrate from property firm Europea 2000 surfaced earlier this year. Two buildings are reportedly planned
The land is on the former CISE (Centro Informazioni Studi Esperienze) nuclear research campus
was an R&D center for nuclear power development
Italian energy firm Enel became CISE’s majority shareholder in the 1960s
The Segrate site was decommissioned in 2003
CyrusOne said it has also acquired a 658,630 sqm biodiverse plot
which has been gifted to the Municipality of Segrate for community use
The company has also pledged to install photovoltaic panels on certain municipal buildings within Segrate
Mayor Paolo Micheli said: “This is an important day for all of us in Segrate
The battle we won against cementing this area was right
We are delighted with this outcome which ensures that this area will remain an ecological area for the benefit of the people of Segrate today and in years to come.”
CyrusOne has data centers in operation or development across the major FLAPD markets of London

Proposing a radical modernization of the interiors
CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati collaborated with Italo Rota (1953-2024) and Maestro Technologies to create a less confining environment with natural elements respecting all the original features of this building
conceived and constructed originally by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer
The building is considered one of Niemeyer’s masterpieces
and it hosts the headquarters of the Mondadori Group
The design by CRA honors the original design while introducing innovative strategies for the future of the workplace
The first step of the project deals with more than 20,000 square meters
with a wider renovation program of Niemeyer’s main European landmark set to follow
CRA- Carlo Ratti Associati has refurbished over 1300 units of the building’s original modular furnishings
This classic post-war furniture has been carefully dismantled and reassembled
integrating wood and creating additional reconfigurable modules
These interventions include incorporating space for plants
and seamlessly weaving nature into the office environment
“In order to get us out of the comfort of our pajama Zoom calls
office spaces need to become more like playgrounds,” says Carlo Ratti
founding partner of CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati
as shown in French director Jacques Tati’s ‘Playtime’ movie
and benefit from a constantly reconfigurable environment.”
The space has been reimagined with desks that encourage informal encounters across all five floors of the building
new transparent meeting rooms have been introduced to create a greater sense of continuity between spaces
allowing people to move while enjoying the surrounding natural environment
The furniture layout has been designed to maximize natural light
accentuating the Palace’s beauty and cultivating a deeper harmony with the surrounding park
The main structure boasts a unique design—a suspended glass box supported by parabolic arches
creating the illusion of a space floating in the air
emerging from an artificial lake designed by the landscape architect Pietro Porcinai
Carlo Ratti is tasked with rethinking the office spaces within the building
to bring them to the forefront and imbue them with innovation once again

The abandoned quarry has left behind a unique landscape
The off]ice’s proposal includes a series of buildings along the lake’s perimeter linked by a public walkway and a cluster of islands in the centre of the lake
MAST is currently working with the Municipality of Segrate toward realising the project
MAST Centroparco. Image © Aesthetica StudioSome of these buildings
are proposed to be built on floating foundations to provide uninterrupted access to the lake water despite fluctuating water levels
depending on groundwater levels and rainfall
The boat rental will offer low-power electric boats for visitors to navigate the lake and discover the floating forest islands at its center

MAST Architects designs its Centroparco in Milan as a series of small nodes along a branching wooden walkway which will house a spa
the spa and boat rental station will be constructed on floating foundations
allowing visitors to access the pristine lake water despite the fluctuating water levels that can vary by up to two meters depending on groundwater levels and rainfall
The boat rental station will offer low-power electric boats for visitors to navigate the lake and explore the floating forests at its center
The largest of these islands will feature an elevated amphitheater
providing a unique venue for performances and public events
moored to the lake bottom but allowed to drift within a limited radius
will serve as picturesque spots for picnics and private gatherings
a fine dining restaurant perched on the rim of the lake will offer panoramic views of the surrounding islands
To ensure the buildings blend harmoniously with their natural surroundings
MAST Architects will make use of prefabricated modules built with timber portal frames and cladding of untreated timber locally sourced outside Milan
MAST co-founder Marshall Blecher emphasized the pioneering aspect of the project
‘The project represents the first of its kind in Italy
an innovative development that unlocks access to the unique natural setting.’
MAST is working in partnership with the Municipality of Segrate to bring this visionary project to life
the transformed quarry turned recreational oasis is expected to become a landmark destination
offering a new and unparalleled experience of nature for the residents of Milan

Giorgio Mondadori invited Niemeyer to build the headquarters of his company
Located along the road to Verona and close to the airport of Linate
Segrate already had several office complexes
In contrast to the corporate image of this type of buildings
associated with the American concept of company
Niemeyer received the commission after Mondadori visited Itamaraty Palace in Brasília
The main building has the same origin as the palaces of Brasilia: a glass volume contained in a larger structure
But in spite of the resemblance in the section of the exposed concrete colonnade
of the use of water as architectural element and of the fact that both are divided into two volumes
Itamaraty and Mondadori are very different
Instead of the square floor plan and the four equal facades of the Brazilian building
facing northsouth and measuring 200 meters long and 30 meters deep
The glass piece protected by the concrete shell is also different: while in Brazil it is detached from the series of arches
in Lombardy the glass box is held by braces to the portico
formed by the two structural lines of the two main facades
with spans ranging between 3 and 15 meters
In words of the architect: “maintaining the archeries with unequal spans; in the different
almost musical rhythm that characterizes them”
two cores of vertical communication link the four free plan floors (plus the columns and the roof)
the use of colors gives each area an identity of its own
is low and has a sinuous shape that crosses the building transversally
the volume is surrounded by water and seems to float “like an undulated willow leaf”
The structure was calculated by Luciano Pozzo and Antonio Nicola, and the architectural details, instead of being assigned to Milton Ramos, who did those of Itamaraty, were commissioned to Glauco Campello. The mirror of water, on the right side of the bridge that gives access to the complex, has a sculpture by Arnaldo Pomodoro... [+]

On the roof of the other buildings, there are real hanging gardens accessible from the office spaces. The green treatment of the roofs contributes, with the light height effects, to a more harmonious composition of the volumes.

An architecture in constant relationship with nature was also the starting point for the choice of materials to be used” adds Pasquini
Like the finish used on the façade (Alucobond
creates particular chromatic effects that vary according to the angle of observation and the natural light: an iridescent skin which gives the building the ability to depend on the colors and light of the seasons
where one is constantly immersed and surrounded by trees and shrubs
both on the ground floor along the central public space and on the upper floors on the terraces characterized by green roofs

He may only have one podium position to his name
but Matteo Zurloni showed he had the goods when it mattered by claiming the top spot at the World Championships in Bern
Whilst his new PB of 5.02 seconds isn’t quite a world-leading time
and could be enough to challenge even the very best that the sport has to offer
That single senior World Championships podium also doesn’t quite do justice to Matteo’s ability
and with ten top five finishes across Youth Cups
Matteo knows what’s needed to go deep in a competition
and - as the winner of the Bern World Championships - has to be considered a contender in Paris
IFSC World Championships Bern 2023: 1st Place (Speed)
Matteo peaked with a PB time of 5.02 seconds in the quarter finals
before a false start from Jinbao Long in the final handed Matteo the top spot and a ticket to the Paris Olympic Games
Despite being slightly lucky in his route to winning the World Championships in Bern - Jinbao Long had a false start in the final
and Rahmad Adi Mulyono slipped in the semi-final - Matteo’s 5.02 seconds was the fastest time of the whole competition
but Matteo doesn’t quite have the competition experience that we’d expect from an Olympic Champion - although neither did Alberto Ginés López in 2020
We think that the Olympic Qualifier series might see some more experienced athletes enter the pack
and that those athletes will push Matteo just outside of the final four
Ashnikko has shared the League Of Legends-inspired music video for their Arcane anthem ‘Paint The Town Blue’ – check it out below
The first taste came via Ashnikko’s ‘Paint The Town Blue’ though
which was originally released in September alongside the official trailer for the show
Now Ashnikko has shared their official music video for ‘Paint The Town Blue’
Ashnikko will be performing ‘Paint The Town Blue’ for the first time live as part of the League Of Legends World Championship which will reportedly give fans a “taste” of what to expect from the new season of Arcane
so she was the perfect artist to partner with on ‘Paint The Town Blue’,” said Maria Egan
“This was a deep creative collaboration with Ashnikko and we’re excited for the League Of Legends community to see what we’ve come up with together for our first live action music video inspired by the show
We can’t wait to watch her perform the song live for the first time at the Worlds Opening Ceremony at the O2 on Saturday!”
The World Championships’ opening ceremony will also see Linkin Park perform ‘Heavy Is The Crown’
which is this year’s World’s Anthem and features on their upcoming album ‘Zero Hour’
They’ll be joined by Mars Atlas and Tiffany Aris
who will perform their collab ‘Still Here’
Arcane season two will be split into three different acts
with the first chunk of episodes set to premiere November 9
Act two will arrive on Netflix November 16 and act three premieres on November 23
Series co-creator Christian Linke has said Arcane is just “the beginning” of Riot Games’ “larger storytelling journey” though
But Arcane is just the first of many stories that we want to tell in Runeterra.”

Milan’s city airport Linate is ready to open again this weekend after three months of renovation work on the terminal and the re-paving of the runways
Departures will begin the next day at 06.30 with a Lufthansa flight to Frankfurt
During the three-month closure since 27 July, the bulk of passengers to and from Milan have used Malpensa airport, 50 km from Milan city centre, while a few chose Orio al Serio airport, near Bergamo. Now passengers will again be just a €2 bus ride on line 73 from Piazza del Duomo
with connections along the way to Milan ATM’s other services like metro and tram
Work is also progressing on schedule on the blue M4 metro line

The TimesThe Italian national anti-doping agency is to start an investigation into the allegations that forced the Olympic 100m champion Marcell Jacobs to split from his nutritionist before the Tokyo Games
Last week a criminal investigation conducted by the Milan police concluded with Giacomo Spazzini
the nutritionist and former competitive bodybuilder
being acquitted of a charge of fraud while his former colleague Antonio Armiento was convicted of falsely claiming to be a doctor
He escaped jail after a plea-bargain arrangement led to a sentence of one year
was focused on the illegal distribution of anabolic steroids and human growth hormone — as well as the illegal supply of prescriptions — across

There are five major new shopping malls just outside of Milan
Two have just opened (Finiper Group’s Il Centro in Arese; Scalo Milano in Locate Triulzi
promoted by Promos) and three will soon: Westfield Milano in Segrate by Percassi and Galeries Lafayette; Concordia in Sesto San Giovanni by Falcon Malls; and Cascina Merlata
designed by Michele De Lucchi and Davide Padoa of Design International
Eye-popping numbers that inspired a sort of phase two to enhance customer loyalty: the creation of an indoor skiing facility designed by De Lucchi
along the lines of the SnowZone ski slope in Madrid’s Xanadu shopping mall
Scalo Milano opened south of town in Locate Triulzi
It features 43,000 sqm of sales space (which may expand to 60,000) dominated by fashion
and design (Kartell and Cassina are two of the brands present at the mall)
Unfortunately the figures for this period do not seem to be adhering to forecasts: when the primary user pool is scarce (it’s a 15-minute drive for most shoppers) it takes more than nice architecture to make a successful shopping mall
The Segrate shopping mall (Westfield and Percassi) will occupy 185,000 square metres and offer visitors a particularly wide selection of food outlets
with the opening of over 50 different eating establishments
It will also include Galeries Lafayette’s first flagship store in Italy
As part of local compensation measures there will be a new rail station on the high-speed line between Milan and Venice
food e design (tra i brand presenti Kartell e Cassina)
The similarly sized Concordia Mall is scheduled to open in the second half of 2021 with 365 stores
and a mixed residential-office area for a value close to one billion euros
designed by Echo Architecture for Falcon Malls
It will occupy a portion of the new MilanoSesto district
the site of the former Falck steel works in Sesto San Giovanni
one of Europe’s largest post-industrial regeneration projects (1.4 million sqm
including a health district and housing for 13,000 inhabitants)
There will be two shopping areas: a three-level
80,000-sqm mall in Building T5 of the former steel works
a monument of industrial architecture that will be fully preserved as the fulcrum and symbol of the project; and a retail boulevard through the adjacent mixed residential-office area
Falcon Malls is also the developer behind the other major Milanese shopping mall
Cascina Merlata (designed by Echo Architecture)
which should open in late 2020 in the new “Uptown” smart district northwest of the city
The mall will offer retail (a total of 190 stores)
and entertainment (multiplex cinema and family play area) in 65,000 sqm of space
365 negozi più spazio leisure & entertainment e area retail vicino alle residenze
occuperà una porzione del nuovo quartiere MilanoSesto
riconversione dell’ex acciaieria Falck di Sesto San Giovanni
e-commerce continues to grow: this year marks the first time that the value of products sold online exceeds that of services (travel arrangements
The value of e-commerce in Italy in 2017 is estimated at 23.6 billion euros
representing a 17% gain over the previous year
This increase has an effect on physical sales space
The consequences are not expected to be felt so much by small stores as by big malls
The development of e-commerce relies on road infrastructure
and there is a good reason that Amazon builds its facilities along major highways
E-commerce does not eliminate physical commercial space
Both Amazon and Alibaba (the Chinese e-commerce giant with revenues five times greater than Amazon) see European markets as strategic
Il Centro in Arese owes much of its success to the nearby Autostrada dei Laghi
which extends the catchment area all the way up to Canton Ticino in Switzerland
IKEA is planning its fourth store in the Milan area
we must note a certain toward the return of shopping to the city centre
As well as the new Porta Nuova and CityLife shopping areas
Milan has developed a number of “Urban Commerce Districts” (Distretti Urbani di Commercio – DUC)
the integration of shopping and public use
and synergy between production and public access
Milan now features thirteen DUC: Portocentenaro
