The plan for the new building (Centro Stile) was undertaken by the Ferrari Design team under the guidance of Flavio Manzoni, while the architectural design was developed in partnership with Studio Design International in London, led by the architect Davide Padoa, and with the Planning studio in Bologna.
A 'double skin' facade uses a triangular pattern on the outside, alternating over 3,000 elements in glass and gilded aluminium
The structure, which covers an area of 1,600m2, is a compact volume divided into four levels (one of which is underground) and has an unusually shaped facade that merges the main front with the side that overlooks the adjoining Engine Assembly department.
Visitors arriving from the main approach on Viale Enzo Ferrari thus see a very sculptural shape that recalls the dynamic lines of Ferrari's cars. Designers and digital surface modellers work in synergy in light and spacious open spaces while the modelling department also plays a central role.

The benefits of natural light were integral to the design of all the Styling Centre work spaces, in particular for the large presentation room and the large terrace used to view the models being worked on.
The new Styling Centre also hosts the new Atelier areas and the Tailor Made personalisation programme spaces aimed at creating an even more exclusive relationship with customers. The new Ateliers are designed to significantly enrich the configuration experience for clients with the help of the dedicated team of experts who support the customer in their choices.
In the new Tailor Made programme area, customers can also count on the advice of a Personal Designer from the design department and an almost unlimited catalogue of materials for the chance to create special, unrivalled specifications for their car.
