Art gallery LOCATION: L’Aquila SUBJECT: architectural design 2
The aim of the project is to create a small art gallery for L’Aquila’s community in order to face the loss of gathering places due to the earthquake in 2009. Theareaislocatedinthe city center, in close proximity of the historical fortress and the new literature faculty: for this reason the project was conceived as a part of a new cultural network. The building is designed as a main volume composed by three single units with different orientations connected by a multi-level staircase that can be identified as the core of the construction. It is provided by two showrooms, one for the temporary collection and another for the permanent one, offices, a bookshop and a small restaurant. The exhibition rooms are not closed spaces in order to create a continuous path inside the building and a link between the different collections.

Interior renovation LOCATION: Alcalá de Henares (Madrid) SUBJECT: proyectos arquitectónicos 3
The project concerns the renovation of a commercial unit located in the historical center of Alcalá de Henares (Madrid). The building is divided in two levels in which there used to be a bar and its storage. The project proposes a variation of the intended use of the place that would be converted in an headphones store (first floor) and a music club (basement). The aim of the proposal is to create a space for music and technology lovers: it is designed to create a sort of ‘full immersion’ into these connected worlds. On the first floor there’s a lighting installation that defines a path through the items sold by the shop that can be tried by the customers in a sort of immersive tour into visual arts and music while on the basement there’s a music club provided by a small stage, a bar and a proper acoustic insulation. The two units are diffent but connected at the same time by a common entrance where customers can find a desk that sells both headphones and tickets for the concerts. In each floor there also are seats designed in a way that underlines the shape of the space and encourages the interaction between people and the surrounding area.

Revaluation of an area in the historical center LOCATION: L’Aquila SUBJECT: restauro architettonico
L’Aquila is a town in central Italy surrounded by a medieval wall with ten doors that are still working despite of the earthquake that destroyed a significant part of the city in 2009. The aim of the project is the renovation of an area near Porta Bazzano, located in the Southern part of the historical center. The work starts with an analysis of the place and the door followed by a research about the history of the city and its walls; the following step is the definition of a renovation project for the area. The proposal concerns the valorization of this part of the city through the creation of a public space and a small info-point and museum for the tourists. Since the building on the site was damaged by the earthquake and has no historical relevance (except for the perimetral wall that overlooks the street), it will be replaced by a small construction and a sort of public square with a staircase similar to the ones that can be found in the center of the city. The analysis on the door highlighted the presence of a small passage inside of it that will be restored to make it accessible. Visitors can arrive to it in two different ways: a direct one provided by a stair between the perimetral wall of the existing building (it will be preserved and restored) or by a walking tour that starts from the square and arrives on the roof the building.

Rilievo e mitigazione della vulnerabilità sismica dell’ex- convento dei Filippini Master Thesis PROFESSOR: prof. Stefano Brusaporci, PROFESSOR: prof. Antonello Salvatori LOCATION: L’Aquila
The building is located in L’Aquila, into the major square of the city. It was built during the XVII century, as a convent adhiacent to the S.FIlippo’s church: it is part of one the most important neighbourhood of the city. During the centuries there has been lots of earthquakes which led to many structural and functional transformations: some spaces were added during the years but a part of the third floor collapsed during XX century. Those trasformations made the structure vulnerable to the external actions. Last seismic event was in 2009: the build was the headquarter of the city hall and the church was converted in a theater. The impact of the earthquake was huge: there has been many structural damages. Today the building is unused and need to be restored. Consequently, it was surveyed the area and the neighbourhood and it was analized the role of the building inside the city. After that were also examined the architectural and structural characteristics (for the sake of brevity structural models are omitted) As long as that the building has an historical and artistic relevance it was planned to restore the structure with a massive intervention on the walls, floors, vaults and facades in order to use the it as cultural space for the citizen provided by exhibition halls, workshop halls, cafe, etc.

Tangram REALIZZATO CON: Viviamolaq UBICAZIONE: carcere di Lecce (Lecce) ANNO:2018
Tangram is the winner of the Archistart 2018 competition. It is a large movable wall located in a common area of a prison located in Lecce. The project is called “tangram” for its inspiration from the famous Chinese game: it is a double-faced structure that changes its shape depending on the activities that prisoners have to do. When it’s closed it works just like a boundary, a border which divides in two different spaces the common area, meanwhile when it’s opened it becomes an interactive wall where people can sit, place stuffs, have a break, read, talk, spend a bit of time. Tangram is a concept, we’ll be on site soon and finally build this project hoping it’ll be loved by all the people inside.

Split Self-construction workshop held during RYH _ Rock Your Head Festival [ed. 2019 | Back in Town]
The project was designed for a workshop held in Montebello di Bertona, a small village in Abruzzo (Italy) during the music festival called RockYourHead. It was developed as a series of modular elements which can be assembled in infinite ways generating different geometries. The main purpose was to create a flexible structure that could be used in different ways( for example as a seat, as a small stage, etc.). Each element has a very simple structure: it is made with four wood panels nailed together, four wood strips and two OSB panels painted with different colours. Each piece of the project was built with the local community and with 20 students that joined the workshop: it was an exciting experience that allowed us to play again with self-construction, meet new people and enjoy an interesting music and arts festival created to give new life to an abandoned village.
