Diploma Mario Botta New train station of Mendrisio, CH Jury Valerio Olgiati (Diploma Director) - Aurelio Galfetti - Franรงois Charbonnet - Kersten Geers - Tom Schoper Every project reflects five fundamental conditions: site, size, type, function and material. Such conditions may vary and produce a wide range of combinations. When one of them is assigned, the others vary within a specific set of possibilities until they all react on each other and give form to an idea.

Mendrisio is a town separated in two by the crossing of one of the main European train axis. The main road, the station, the post office and the bus station are now located at the south side, while the north one, between the railways and the highway, is still industrial. The new SUPSI building, that will bring another university in town, will rise in this second context. The project for the new station aims to establish a relation between the two sides. The idea is to force this punctual separation to reconnect the town. At a bigger scale, the traffic of the main road is split in two one-way directions, one on each side of the railway. The public functions will be then split on the two sides. The last step is to connect them through a bridge and a passerelle: the first one guarantees access to the train level while the second one is a straight connection through the railway barrier.

“The student demonstrated concreteness in facing the project, even if in the first part of the semester he had some difficulties in choosing the composition and in turning his idea into something more urban and real. He has been available to the various changes proposed by the professor and he progressively improved in the evolution of the project, sometimes with decisive choices that brought good results. The didactic path of the graduate it was always correct and constructive. In the final part of the semester he increased the technical and compositive aspect, showing a good knowledge of the discipline in all of its aspects.� Mario Botta




Atelier Jan De Vylder The project for a house in a forest becomes a way for sperimenting with concrete. It’s a fortress, a retreat, of which one façade is poured in the ground and then lifted. The element of the stair becomes the support that holds it in place. forest house - collage

Atelier Aires Mateus Living Marrakech: a covered square and a library for the Medina

Marrakech’s Medina - 1:1000 - pigmented concrete


The project fills an urban void in the most central part of the Medina. An unused plot just beside Ben Youssef mosque is open to the city traffic. Here, rising one floor above the street level, a new library is born: a space of knowledge and learning. Underneath it a covered square is generated: space of trade, space of shadow, space of rest. The intellectual knowledge arise from tradition and everyday life.

Atelier Eric Lapierre space of fiction - anytime anywhere architecture - via Appia revisited

Piero della Francesca, Announciation, 1470


Each student was challenged to reinterpret one scene of the Bible in the scenographic context of via Appia Antica in Rome. I was assigned to study the episode of the Announciation, the moment when Gabriel visits Virgin Mary to inform her that she will conceive the son of God. The most intriguing aspect of the Announciation is that the act of conception, common to all human beings and animals, is deprived by the physical, sexual act and it’s through this absence that the episode exits normality and reaches the myth. The project tries to evoke the importance of this absence: a very simple house finds its place in a pasolinian roman outskirt, at the crossing between a trainway and the old Appia road. This proximity leads to an exception: one of the corners seems to be cut away by the trainway, and is therefore treated differently. It is through this absence that a very simple house exits normality.

Atelier KĂŠrĂŠ social housing in Ouagadougou

informal settlement and water tank


Ouagadougou, the main center of Burkina Faso, is rapidly growing: attracted by the economical possibilities that a city offers, many inhabitants move here from the country. Anyhow, the settlements grow in areas that are not covered by any infrastructure and informality, typical of the village structure, clashes against the attempt of a westernized planification. The aim of the project is to imagine a prototype of social housing in the peripherical areas of the city, related to the habits and the needs of a different society. Beside the necessity of densification, different aspects had to been considered: the use of local material and local building tecniques, the storage of water, the relationships within the community, the importance of a small scale economy and the use of streets as public space.

with Studio Albori Venice Biennal 2008 - tamed ecomonster

the concrete skeleton


The project by Aldo Rossi and Gianni Braghieri for San Cristoforo train station in Milan was never completed: its concrete skeleton can still be seen in the outskirts of the city. The project imagines a new use of this existing structure: by addying different modules the dead skeleton returns to life in the form of a new settlement. While the ground level hosts shops and facilities, the upper ones become a new village in the city.

the tamed ecomonster


Moving into a new house, how to make two rooms out of one? A system that works only by pressure was developed - to avoid perforations. Using mostly existing materials it was possible to build a nest of 6 m2 where to feel comfortable.
