This must be ‘The Place’

The original concept for the Bike Hub in Aosta is entirely based on a passion for cycling. Inside, the collections of facings created by Terratinta Ceramiche, a brand of the Terratinta Group, combine vintage taste with contemporary colors, suggesting traces of time

A multifunctional space, the fruit of redeveloping a former industrial building, becomes a resource for the community, bringing sports and design together. Its 700 sq. m. is home to a café, shop, rental, workshop, and front office of Aosta Valley Freeride, where you can book tours and sign up for courses.

The building operates entirely on electricity and is self-powered with solar panels installed on the roof. Two Terratinta Ceramiche collections were chosen for the Place Bike Hub: Betonbrick, distinctive for its innovative style, a union of tradition and contemporary design, in its Black Diamond Glossy variant; and Betonmetal, in the Aluminum matte variant, whose grays and the combination of metal and concrete references the building’s original spirit. The project was managed by Zanetti Cantieri with materials supplied by Noli Home.
