International ideas competition for ServicesArchitectures for Milan Expo2015, 3th prizeMilan, Italy

Interpreting the theme of Expo 2015 'Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life forService Architectures' is natural and spontaneous idea was to recreate thegreenhouse.The manufacturing technology of the greenhouse reminds us of the CrystalPalace, designed and built for the Universal Exhibition of 1851 in London.Similarly, the formal and technological architectures of Service Expo 2015 to"celebrate" the new technologies, but in terms of sustainability in social,aesthetic, technical, environmental and energy.Nevertheless the elongated shape of the building of the slats with thepitched roof, typical of greenhouses, we also relocating locally in both theindustrial tradition of Milan, with its warehouses, is the agriculture of thefarmhouses.

The goal of our project is create a model that is flexible, lightweight, clear,and self-sustainable.

Flexible modular design for the spatial and functional organization. Theabsence of support pilars makes the structure adaptable to the variousneeds for the different types.The material is lightweight formal construction, defined by the coating andthe structural system.

Clear as capable of show construction principles, and therefore easy toconvey to visitors.

Self because the shape and the material gives a value of identity, the imageassociated with the Expo, without interfering with other structural elementsof the Site and connective

Eco-friendly because we think of each building, not as an object, but as abody with flow and content of energy and materials.

The type of skin looks translucent, allowing from an internalization of thesurrounding landscape and the other pavilions, and at the same time, acomplete reflection from the outside.At night, the charm is accentuated, because the service architecturesbecome lanterns,with projections and applications of great visual impact,to inform and attract visitors.

The housingWithin the functional program was added to block housing for socialpurposes for a total of 400 square meters.This is residences, located on the first floor, each with a patio and withindependent access from the common ground for families with elderlydependents, who currently are facing housing difficulties. By providinghome care services may be conceived in this way, to create a viablealternative to residential structures are allowed only for elderly, ofteninvolving social isolation, and resolving, in part, the shortage of affordableaccommodation.The redefinition of these spaces, characterized by a greater aesthetic qualityand livability, increase the attractiveness of the place and will be anincentive to use, the daily traffic and the promotion of the same market.

The marketThe market organizes itself around two squares, a main for fruit andvegetable sales, and another for fish and meat sales, around which all thestalls are organized. Two axis define circulations and entrances, connectingall the spaces: the Apuana and the Versilia Galleries.

International ideas competition for therestoration and reuse of the Roccahistoric building and the adjoining park,1st prize Nogarole Rocca (VR), Italy

The design intent is to restore the Fortess’s monumental andrepresentative character, a stage for crossed activities, events,connections, services, meetings, allowing a continuous flow, day andnight, and inter-connected to different users (tourists, young and seniorcitizens...). The project has three main goals: the rehabilitation of the inner courtyard,transformed into a piazza, the poly-functionalization of the existingbuildings and the requalification of Rocca’s Park.

Piazza Scaligera "The squares (..) are the formal space of the community, the place wherehistory, cultural movements, artistic styles, material culture, collectiveimagination, symbolic projections, established rituals, traditions andbehavioral habits intersection occurs." (C. Dardi, Place d'Italie, in "Agora", 1, Rome 1987)

The redevelopment of the inner courtyard, conceived as a mend toNogarole’s social and connective tissue, foresees a stabilized earth andstone paving and the addition of chairs and tables, in order to restore itsoriginal aggregative potential. The Piazza Scaligera, whose name derivesfrom one of the most important noble families residing in the fortress, iscrossed by a pedestrian-cycle path attaching the town’s old road to theTorre Storta o di Roncaraldo.

Rocca (fortress)The program for the Rocca’s reuse derives of the historical interpretationof the functional and formal invariants of the buildings. The West andEast wings (manor and workers house) keep their residential character,hosting an accommodation structure, while for the remaining wings of theRock, historically subject to major functional upheavals, a flexible programhas been prepared, designed to improve and increase services tocitizens. The inclusion of various public services, such as the information desk andwelcoming center, ATM,postbox, bicycle parking and renting, promotesand enhances the Piazza Scaligera’s livability, allowing a collectiveparticipation of the recovery and preservation of this great historical andarchitectural heritage.

Parco della Rocca (park)The proposal is based on the interpretation of the site’s historicalevolution, highlighting traces and relationships. Water, an essential element for landscape design, structures the projectfor the Urban Park.On the one hand, we investigate through the obvious signs of existingvegetation to bring to light the main water structure, which marked thefortress from 1600 onwards: the lake. On the other hand, the channel, natural boundary of the intervention, isrevitalized through simple enhancement of the corresponding vegetableplants, which constitute the identity of the place. This way the palimpsest of the project is defined.

International competition "A Roomfor London"London, England

Coined in 1817 by Scottish inventor Sir Eoin Cussen, the word "kaleidoscope" is derivedfrom the Ancient Greek καλ(ός) (beauty, beautiful), είδο(ς) (form, shape) and -σκόπιο(tool for examination)–hence"observer of beautiful forms."

Spending a unique night in a one-bedroom temporary home/hotel perchedon the top of the Queen Elizabeth Hall roof should not be an ordinaryexperience but a rather extraordinary architectural adventure. Our proposal attemps to redefine the relationship between interior andexterior. There is no inside nor outside, instead a so called“enterior” (exterior+interior) space - conceived as a porch from where,warmed by an outdoor (bio) fireplace, you can contemplate London and itsmagnificence.

The simple observation of the topography let’s us build a contemplation interval andimagine the territory as a scheletrical structure upon which the village was createdtherefore emphasizing the consequent changes made to it.The walkways along the valley have always served as communication paths: waterstreams become generators of environmental/archeological paths. By following themit’s possible to arrive to the inumerous archeological and naturalistic sites of thearea. The three proposed parks work as a connecting system between the thecoastal ecosystems and those of Monti Ferru.These parks will vitalize the surrounding areas thus enabling it’s free use andoffering spaces for leisure and other functions. These parks, wet areas of extremeecological importance, will act as biodiversity densification “lines” of great relevanceto the hydrological balance of the territory.The three parks will be connected to each others through a pedestrian walkwaythat unifies both physically and visually the most relevant sites on the landscapeand on the the built environment, like the spanish towers that emerge on eachpromontory from Santa Caterina to Torre del Pozzo. The landscape in it’s biggestscale becomes a theme for reflection, a tool to solve urban indefinition,environmental and architectonical degradation.

The building, a narrow northeastern-oriented enclosed lot in the old town ofMolfetta, is a rare surviving example of medieval popular housing units.This type of housing, named "tower house" was destined to various families,who used to live on separate floors, connected by a common stairwell, with abarn and a water tank in the basement.In fact engineer Giangaspero, author of the recovery plan drafted by the City in1934, wrote: "In functional terms it were promiscuous, where the steep flightsof narrow wooden stairs were not reached by means of landings, but throughthe rooms inhabited by the other housemates" .Its morphology is characterized by a predominantly vertical cell with a stronglysloping roof, with more than two levels above ground floor and a basement.The main technical and structural characteristics of the block are easilyidentifiable: dry stone walls, masonry rubble vertical structure, arched masonryslabs on the street and basement floors and wooden slabs on the upper floors,fireplace on the rear of each floor, gabled roof with balcony towards the mainroad.

ProjectThe set of planned interventions is aimed at the protection and enhancementof the building,The project preserves the residential use, maintaining the logic of the olddistribution system and the main characteristics of the original building.Instead of housing different families, each floor will be dedicated to a singlefunctional use:the ground floor for living (living room/study), the first floor foreating (kitchen/dining room) and the second floor for sleeping (bedroom). Thebasement will house a small interior pool and the attic a small reading room.

"A long history of insecurity and, perhaps, lack of water points led to the concentrationof population"

We propose the creation of a new cluster of buildings, which, through its typological,morphological and chromatic characteristics respects the context in which it operatesand the relationship with the environment, maintaining and restoring landscape'sinterest.

This new group, consisting of six volumes, one for each one of the programmatic units,with volumetric differences deriving from the different intended uses and the plot'snatural slope, suggests a small region's typical urban settlement.

This fragmentation and lack of correspondence between the various volumes also allowsbetter management of relations between the units and the construction of somecourtyards, an important characteristic of local architecture.

Our proposal is to construct a set of buildings that dialogues with local architecture,whose main characteristic is "its simplicity, which is manifested in appearance, with agreat purity of shapes and surfaces and arrangement of component parts"1.This new group is composed of four bodies, one for each of the functional units(accommodation / reception areas, different types of accommodation), grouped in twovolumes, and integrated into a single architectural entity by a common basement,consequence of earth movements necessary for its implementation, it proposes itself as atypical region's settlement 2.The basement allows the configuration of these courts as activities center (leisure,monitoring and knowledge of agricultural production, etc).

2 "Settlements, in the southern Algarve, are composed of different types of housing, generally, accompanied by annexes thatvary in shape, size and number depending on the type of property to which they belong (...). This type of settlement is closelyrelated to the type of culture and the dispersion of buildings imprints well defined characteristics in Algarve's landscape -every dwelling is like the center of agricultural activity of its inhabitants, in addition to their home ".( Arquitectura Popular emPortugal, SNA 1961 )

Floating Swimming Pool,Lisbon, Portugal

Before its water became so heavily polluted the river was a great place for swimming,since then people were forced to move to nearby beaches. Each summer, thousands ofpeople make this daily commuting everyday. Bringing back the beaches and the abilityto swim in the Tagus river would avoid the need for a daytrip to the beach, andcontribute to the construction of a renewed relationship between Lisbon and its river.This improvised beaches consist of existing and currently unused barges regularly usedfor carrying freight or dredging waste, transformed to accomodate a swimming pool, asun terrace and a bar on it’s deck as well as the necessary supporting services on it’sbilge. They act as extensions to adjacent parks over the water. People go to thesebeaches in the way they go to regular ones rather than indoor swimming baths. Notnecessarily to exercise, but primarily to socialize, play and enjoy the sun. Imaginewalking across the city’s promenade on a sunny day afternoon in summer and seeinghundreds of people dressed in swimwear, sunbathing and smiling as if they were on asandy beach.
