For many years, VM Architettura Integrata has been involved in the design of rainscreens for buildings of considerable size; in this particular case, the collaboration between Arch. Davide Prando and Eng. Marco Rota Nodari has enabled the further development of wind flow analyses, examining two towers with heights of about 393 ft and 295 ft (120 m and 90 m), respectively, in a digital wind tunnel.
