THE URBAN DOMESTICITY OF THE INHABITABLE WALL A research on life between two faces of the same place

0 // understanding the context and its essence - the concept of “pairs and faces� highlights the characteristic of this area: two different realities - local and metropolitan - are colliding. _understanding the city = impressions and interpretations 1 // investigating the role of both the outside/public and indoor/private space in the series of actions that create the domesticity sphere of different actors. _understanding the actors = atlas of domesticities 2 // the categories of leisure and relationships are able escape the traditional limit of domesticity and reach the public space, colonizing the inhabited wall. _urban rooms 3 // exploring, building, mixing, adding, pouring, waiting. _making = understanding

THE BUSYBODY AND THE PART-TIME HERMIT
THE BUSYBODY AND THE PART-TIME HERMIT &rchitecture
Residential + age-friendly tutor: Stefan White + Mark Hammond @ MSA Manchester School of Architecture, MArch 2 Feb - May 2019
how does a model designed with the consideration of varied levels of social interactions enable a new age friendly community? The brief is to understand how the Northern Gateway can be changed to promote a more age-friendly community. How does a model designed to engage residents abilities, interests and levels of interaction as a basis for urban regeneration enable the development of new age friendly communities? In response to our research question, the fundamental solution is how to categorise different types of residents not based upon their age, but by level at which they interact with the rest of their community.
active
passive
inactive
With these general categories we are able to narrate the types of residents on a spectrum ranging from being a very active member of their community, to wanting to keep to themselves as well as all the residents in between. [ individual work ]

EARTHWORK
EARTHWORK architecture museum
Public/cultural competition June 2019
EXPLORING THE GROUNDSCAPE The earthwork is the first action of building. In the groundscape of Berlin the Museum of Architecture takes the form of an unveiled archaeological settlement challenging us to question the history of urban stratifications over time. An institutional building rests above the site, protecting it whilst hosting cultural educational functions. A NEW CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM Subdividing the history of architecture through the definition of different spatial typologies instead of relying on a typical chronological classification. Cathedrals, boxes, surfaces, temples and objects become the new categories in which the whole human opera can be inscribed. [ with R. Orsini ]

COMMON GROUND
COMMON GROUND post-earthquake reconstruction
Urban reconstruction Tutor: Stefano Boeri @ AUIC Politecnico di Milano, Urban Design Studio, MArch 1 Oct 2017 - Feb 2018
What is left? What to start again with? What is the light among the dark rest of the catastrophe? The same experience, a common disaster, a unifying sorrow, this is what linked people by an event, a horrible moment that created a zero level in the city structure, in the community life, and in peoples’ memory. We reflected upon what, in such an unsteady and weak situation, could be the support to hold on to, and instead of looking high for imposing technical structure, we looked down to our feet and to the land we walk on. We took this land, this ground as a common effective reality, as an opportunity to change, to start from a common foundation, a common memory, a common ground. The common ground suggested to us a range of solutions from the urban scale to the building scale taking into account the delicate context of the village, with its intricate cultural and historical background. We do believe that moving through the landscape, urban or natural, the walking experience on it and inside of it, can be the way to deal with an unfaithful territory, the way to feel again the land as home. [ with R. Salomoni, O. Celik ]

COMMON GROUND
CONCA AMATRICIANA _The pedestrian infrastructure The reading operation of Conca Amatriciana territory made us think it as a centralised network, so that we aim to link the fractions and the landmarks in the surroundings through a light infrastructure that can bring people once again closer to their land. In this case, the ‘common ground’ is shaped as a pedestrian infrastructure, a system of pathways that can really gather the context with the core of Amatrice and create a unifying system, a fluid that makes the experience of the land by walking possible.

COMMON GROUND
OLD TOWN _‘Low relief ground’ and public islands Considering the land as the main resource, we meant to clear the foundation of the new Amatrice removing all the debris above and underneath the ground in order to provide a more stable level for the entire city centre, a new soil to start life again.

LIBRARY+ Pinocchio’s Library
Public/cultural competition Oct - Nov 2017
Aiming to be the very house to hold fairytales and everyday storytellers, the building contains an extensive programme of educational facilities made of spaces thought for children both physically and mentally. To promote a vibrant and encouraging atmosphere for its students and the surrounding city, the main focus was to translate a child-like energy into the design. In this way the project seeks to undo the strictness often found in traditional library environments and reinforces the significance of engaging children in an environment in which learning can be interactive and experiential. Following the typical central Italy village configuration, the library seeks to enhance the concept of the winding street surrounded by buildings. To emphasize the experience of walking through a village, the path is designed to include several ramps accessible to everyone, that shape the walkway and the interior spaces, to create a continuous system. [ with R. Salomoni, M. Tavola ]
