StudioEdile.it — the practice, not the building site

studioedile.it

'Studio' is the Italian word for a professional practice and 'edile' means building: together, the office where a project is drawn, costed and supervised rather than poured. That is the high-margin end of construction — surveyors, structural engineers, design-and-build firms, energy and seismic upgrade specialists, project managers. Most of Italy's housing stock went up before 1980, which makes renovation a permanent line of business rather than a cycle. Two words, thirteen characters, unmistakable to an Italian client.
