Sulla fragilitĂ potenziale
Project I
Master Thesis C. Zucchi, S. Tropea, M. Voltini April 2019 Val Graveglia, Liguria, Italy With Francesca Venini
Stories of increasingly fragile territory in Italy’s hinterlands have become central to contemporary debate. The thesis work focuses on the critical and synthetic reading of a specific area in Liguria, in the Levante hinterland. It considers fragility as a potential for future development through three “site specific� projects, characterized by the relationship of the soil to the element of water. The first point at low altitude on the banks of the Graveglia torrent, with a park+greenhouse; the second at intermediate altitude in the village of Zerli, with a new oil-mill (view); and finally the third on the crest of Mount Chiappozzo, which is identified as a weather monitoring point and Belvedere. Agriculture and environmental management are seen as tools for maintenance and regeneration of the hinterland. By connecting to a pre-existing system of dry stone walls and topographic trends, the mill redesigns the boundary of a hairpin bend through a wall and the insertion of a light metal structure, with sloping piched roof to collect water and light.

ResidĂŞncia em Almirante Reis
Project II
Design studio V F. Aires Mateus II sem 2018 Lisbon, Portugal Individual project
Uma residência em Almirante Reis proposes an original way of living taking advantage of the steep topography, the preexisting paths and “escadas” and the incredible view on a “layered” city. In fact a sequence of stone walls is newly connecting Rua dos Lagares and the Igreja da Graça, as well as the park. A new relationship between public path and private spaces is generated: it is a very common and traditional situation to be found in city like Lisbon or Porto, in which every upper corner shows a different visual approach on private houses. Up to every stair there is a terraces that acts as the house entrance, the private garden and the public transversal path, a ‘miradouro’ on the park and the city. There are three main typologies of housing: two mainly for students/ workers, with individual rooms or mini/duplex and connom areas,facing a courtyard behind the walls. The last one more for families, developed in the plastered volumes attached to the context.

An hostel in Porta Genova
Project III
Design studio IV Cino Zucchi, S.Tropea, M.Cassani, P.Sturla II sem 2016-2017 Milan, Italy with B. Cappuccilli and C. Fignon
The project call for an hostel, with gym, swimming-pool and restaurant, a multiporpose space and a public outdoor space, to give back an identity to the abandoned Porta Genova yard. From an urban point of view, the complex is structured in two poles, the multipurpose space close to the station and the hostel in the opposite corner, accentuating the alongated morphology of the site, leaving a greater accessible square with integrated green. The hostel-tower, which stands out as an obelisk in the horizon, has a variable section with different floors’ hights according to the bedroom typologies and the services. The simple rectangular plan bends on one side to better integrate the street and the entrance. The pillar structure and slabs are external and draw the facades, using trilateration to set the inclined pillars. The green areas integrate a mineral urban plaza with organic flowery shapes.

Seven Beautiful Orchards
Work I
CZ Call Competition If Design Onsite studio Baukuh April 2017 Milan, Italy
Cino Zucchi Architetti, together with Michelle Desvigne and Piovenefabi, were called by Sistemi Urbani for a competition to imagine possible future scenarios for the seven disused rail yards in Milan (shown in the scheme on the side). Inside the urban project , the singular building’s design was assigned to If deisgn studio, Onsite studio and Baukuh. I worked with If design team developping three buildings projects in three yards, especially through the use of colored gypsum maquettes. The urban configurations CZ proposes create places with a different vocation, scale and character within a polycentric urban landscape. Farini Rail Yard becomes a great park with sinuous paths and pedestrian runways overpassing the railway, Porta Romana Rail Yard becomes a great sloping lawn, open towards Prada Foundation and a market-square which interchanges between the new railway station and buses terminus, Lambrate Rail Yard becomes a great green «crescent».

Na Loja Do Mestre Andre
Work II
Studio exhibition event aspa Arquitectos February 2018 Lisbon
During the event called “Na Loja Do Mestre Andre”, students from the Coimbra University were coming to Lisbon to visit some architectural studios for getting closer to their most recent works and design attitude. Therefore the best way to show aspa atelier’s potential was developing a brief exhibition of the studio’s last projects. By means of big scale maquettes (1:20 scale), experimenting different materials and representation, it was developed an idea of set up in the studio with both maquette and drawings of three chosen projects. EPAR: a new internal facade for a residential building (upper three pict. sequence), ECAB: two floors roof extension on a preexistance, EGES: a new residential building (botton three pict. sequence). The maquette concept was to underline the key points of the three different buildings, such as symmetry, opposition of clear voids and sequnces of geometrical extrusions. Realized with foam, paint and gypsu powder.
Art Prison Santa Caterina
Competition I
1st Prize YAC Competition May 2018 Favignana, Sicily with team Simposio
The tectonic nature of the new cultural hub illustrates the insertion of the project in the landscape and the topography of the naturalistic context of the Favignana fortress, as its main peculiarity. The new design highlights and articulates the way the fortress grafts into the rock. The spatial narration of the project, on a wider scale, holds together natural and architectonic elements; it elects the stronghold as a fulcrum and turns the landscape from a simple background into the key player. The marked trace of the preexisting path is a fundamental inspiration for the morphology of the new one. The preexisting path works as a furrow, which structures a big cultural and panoramic basin connecting different spots of the landscape. New points of view are generated in the surroundings.The exhibition itinerary ties together the ancient and the new in a unique design; the journey, in a climax, leads up to the great open-air theatre oriented towards the fortress, allowing for a perspective on the ancient existence.

Workshop
Architectural still-life drawings S. Duvernoy, G. Mele II sem 2014-2015 Valencia Individual
The workshop was centered on the drawings of public spaces and architecture in Valencia, in order to study them and to understand the volumes, the proportions and the lightings which make them real. The technique of sketches was free but the timing to do them was fixed. The spaces represented were different: the tipycal historic spanish squares such as Plaza de Napoli i Sicilia and Plaza de l’Arquebisbe, the port with the contemporary building by D. Chipperfield Vels i Vent and the cathedral. Moreover all the Calatrava complex with the science museum and the greenhouse. The different techniques adopted underlines some peculliarity of the architectures: the cinchona highlights the silhouettes and the facades, the watercolor the tint under lighting and the charcoal the chiaroscuro.
