The paper presents the analysis made to support an Architect Studio (Richard Meier, NY) in the process of designing a large office and laboratory building (6 400 m2 above ground and 10 600 m2 under ground) that will be constructed in 2008 in the new technology area near Bergamo. The building, following the design style of Meier (see for example the Dives in Misericordia Church in Rome) aims at constant visual contact of the occupants with the outdoor and the sky through use of transparent surfaces. Based on analysis made by eERG, the resulting challenge from the energy and comfort point of view has been addressed via a number of refinements and additions to the original design. The owner aims at achieving the GreenBuilding partner status.

Abstract
The paper presents the analysis made to support an Architect Studio (Richard Meier, NY) in the process of designing a large office and laboratory building (6 400 m2 above ground and 10 600 m2 under ground) that will be constructed in 2008 in the new technology area near Bergamo. The building, following the design style of Meier (see for example the Dives in Misericordia Church in Rome) aims at constant visual contact of the occupants with the outdoor and the sky through use of transparent surfaces. Based on analysis made by eERG, the resulting challenge from the energy and comfort point of view has been addressed via a number of refinements and additions to the original design.
