The portfolio contains selected works from my academic experiences. Experimentation and diversity are the keywords of my journey at the architecture faculty. Despite the design projects are really different from each others, a peculiar attention to the social sphere, to the user experience and to the relationship between architecture and nature on different scales have been the leitmotif of my design process. Moreover, the attention to the environmental impact of architecture brought me to research and design with a bigger awareness during my Master years. Please enjoy my selected works, With gratitude, Elisa Pastorelli

MILK FARM 2.0 ‘A shift from traditional to artificial milk production’

The world is rapidly progressing towards more sustainable solutions in animal-based food production. The exponential population growth and the consequent increasing demand for meat and dairy has set up a production model based on intensive livestock practices, where the high productive rates are coming at the expense of our environment in terms of GHG emissions, land availability and water consume. In turn, a fast- paced and radical shift towards new food production models is crucial to reach the zero-hunger sustainable goal (SDG-2) by 2030. My graduation project consists in the first potential ‘architectural scale-up’ of the emergent cultured-milk technology, the production of milk in laboratory through a fermentation process. Although this technology is still at an experimentation scale, important investors are financing research and start-ups and soon artificial milk might become part of our daily diets. How cultured milk technology might be disruptive for the built environment? As an architect I started to speculate about how the introduction of this technology could affect our built environment with the introduction of milk refineries where cows will be replaced by machines. This shift would entail a radical societal and cultural change towards a new food culture that will be translated in architecture with the design of a new typology of ‘farm’, a totally human farm.

My design moved from the mere design of an industrial plant to the design of a milk production pole able to become a hotspot for the Noorder IJ-polder, connecting artificial milk production with the local community to build a new food culture. The themes of the milk industrial production and the public sphere come togheter in a very context-related project, connected both to the social and cultural context and to the physical site. The first cultured-milk farm has been designed on water, in a very natural spot.There are more than one reason for that.The Netherlands has a huge problem connected to the land availability. Partly because 1/4 of the country already lies under the sea level and the available land is further shrinking due to the rising in the sea level. Partly because the most of the Dutch land is occupied by agricultural practices and estimating an exponential population growth within 2050 there will be a huge request for new houses. A first attempt to produce milk ‘on water’ has already been designed in the Rotterdam harbour where alive cows are churning milk on a floating platform. So what I thought should be done in the future, considering that cow-less milk production relies on machines instead of alive animals, is to shift the industrial production of food on water. This, on the one side should re-connect people to the nature (as it was in the traditional idea of farm), but could be also an opportunity to explore more into the possibilities of designing a structure in symbiosis with nature, able to benefit the environment in terms of biodiversity. Morevoer water could be employed as an energy source, able to improve the energetic performance of the building and create an energy self-sufficient building. This is something that in my design I didn’t develop completely but could become an opportunity for further developments of the project. On the whole, my design wants to propose as an architectural prototype, an hybrid and experimental design that on the one side is significantly radicated in the context, on the other side promotes new values related to sustainability. The prototype defines a conceptual and experimental structure of space and it’s addressed to a shareability and transmissibility of the design principles that have been applied to the design, both from the theoretical point of view and its physical construction.

THE FACADE

An experimental and innovative double-skin facade has been designed. Following the concept of an architectural element that can benefit the surrounding environment, the porous facade is composed by a mycelium panels layer and a green facade layer. The facade pose in close relationship the visitors with nature on the one side and artificial milk production process on the other side. Principles of climatiic adaptation have been taken into account to provide a comfortable space to the visitors during all the year. Moreover, the facade cow-spot openings become an iconic element for the entire intervention

The sliding mycelium panels open up and allow the natural ventilation of the filter space, constantly heated by the fermentation room. The presence of the water of the polder helps further to mitigate the climate, cooling up the wind during the summmer season. Moreover the green facade creates a sun screen and prevents the heat to enter the filter space while allows light to filter.

The mycelium panels act like wind shields during the winter season although the proximity of water helps to mitigate the climate, reducing the thermal excursion between day/night. Moreover the mycelium panels, thanks to their insulation properties, help to keep the heating produced by the fermentation room inside of the filter space that is passively heated. The latter becomes a climate comfortable space for the visitors of Milk farm 2.0. The porous facade allows the light to filter also during the winter season.

SWIM & SUN ‘A bridge as a destination’

Teamwork: Elisa Pastorelli, Maarten Abe Nijenhuis, Stanislaus Ruff Keywords: accessibility, public destination, identity, timber structure, sustainability The new bridge at the river Rotte, north of Rotterdam‘s center is supposed to connect the district of Terbregge with Hillersberg, particularly the Prinsenmolenpark. To add not just a convenient connection between the two river embankments but a destination in itself, the bridge offers opportunities to sunbathe, to swim and to enjoy the views towards the surrounding natural land and waterscapes.

MATERIALITY

The primary support structure consists of laminated block girders, made out of prefabricated timber elements. Due to its positive climatic impact and its structural logic the timber can be employed as a solid and massive element. The wood protection is mainly guaranteed by the bridge deck itself, which is made out of waterproof prefabricated concrete slabs with carbon fibre reinforcements. MATERIALITY Timber The high percentage of prefabricated modules allows for a swift assembly on site. The platforms, which are integrated in the supports of the bridge, connect the path of the bridge with the water, enabling people to enter the water safely. They are mounted on the primary timber structure with corten steel profiles, juxtaposing the bright timber texture.

My bachelor graduation project develops from a broader research project started in 2008 and conducted by professors Riccardo Canella and Marco Canesi with a team of students, architects and urban planners of the Department of Architecture, Built Environment and Construction Engineering of Politecnicothe di Milano. Bridging gap: Timber industry:

Connection between the industry

Long-term expansion necessity

The research aims at the strategic regional planning of city Cuba and its economic develand the Bridging Timber industry: opment after the embargo restrictions. From previous analysis, Cuba turned out asthe thegap: Connection between the industry Long-term expansion necessity position most interesting country of the Caribbean due to its geographical towards the PHASE 5 PHASE 6 and the city international transshipment routes and for its availability of raw materials. Therefore, a strategic plan involving the interception of international tradings through the creation HASE 4 PHASE 5 PHASE 6 of a port in Santiago de Cuba and the manufacturing of semi-finished products has been developed. The Cuban territory has been divided into productive areas, linked by an infrastructural system of railways and highways that might provide the transport of raw materials and goods. In particular, three infrastructural rings that connect the main strategic hubs (Santiago, San Luis, Alto Cedro, Sagua de Tanamo, Mayarì, Guantanamo, Bayamo, Holguin and Las Tunas) were studied. My research focused on a qualitative and quantitative analysis about the timber species available in the south-east region of Cuba that helped me to dimensioning and design a potential timber industry in Guantanamo. The tropical forest is an essential resource for the Cuban territory since it prevents the hydrogeological risk and protects the island from the hurricanes, very frequent in the south-east area. Has been demostrated that a sustainable management of the forest, based on an optimal cutt-off frequency for each three species, would allow to create one timber industry with an input of 600.000 cubic metres of timber per year. This could trigger the re-development of the Cuban economy.

The timber industry aims at the maximal functional efficiency. The general layout of the industry depends on the position of the railway and is the result of a deep research about the entire process of woodworking, from the rail and road transport of roundwood to the export of laminated timber and xlam products. All the buildings are linked through elevated walkways for the safety of the workers. The dimension of the timber industry is calculated on the amount of roundwood which arrives each year by rail and road (600.000 cubic metres) and is proportional to other industries taken as references (Magnifica Segheria della Val di Fiemme, XLAM Dolomiti and Klenk Holf).

THE ADMINISTRATION POLE

The administrative pole is composed by a unique volume, developed on different-high terraces with a courtyard in the middle. Thanks to its massivness and height, it becomes a landmark in the South of Guantanamo and marks the entrance to the timber industry. The volume is crossed by a lifted linear runaway which allow workers to access the two parts of the building. Two starwells allow workers to reach the green courtyard and the covered square at the ground floor, a multifunctional shaded public space. The design process follows the idea of a rigid shell building enclosing an organic and dynamic interior.

THE MEETING SQUARE

This project aims at the connection between the industrial plant and the urban fabric of Guantanamo. Thus, some facilities for the factory workers and some spaces for the citizens have been designed. All the functions are developed around a circle square, where workers and Guantanamo citizens meet. This circle space ideally represents the free exchange of ideas and the cultural progress of the Cuban population after the embargo and its restrictions. The square contains an oasis with palms and fontains, which allows workers and citizens to relax in a shaded and cool area, protecting themselves from the tropical climate of Cuba. A semi-circular ramp developed around the square allow people to reach the linear runway, directly connected to the industry. A public library, some wood craft stores, some spaces for workshops and temporary exhibitions, temporary residents and a guesthouse for workers were designed.

A MONUMENTAL INVERSION ‘Delirious relationship between nature and the city of Athens’

Teamwork: Darshik Parejiya, Peyvand Taremi

Keywords: monumental, delirious city, connectivity, urban green, urban stoa sustainability

Athens is a very significant city for its history and monuments, that are sprawl all around its broad urban pattern. Does the city actually required new monuments? And, if yes, how should this monument look like? Our speculation started from an observation of the relationship between the nature and the city in the past, when the city itself was surrounded by a “delirious” nature and the stoas constituted the architectural boundary of the urban pattern. The nature was monumental and spread without any limit. Nowadays the situation is reverse: we physically experienced a “delirious city”, where is not possible to define any boundaries and where nature has a marginal role. From this speculation we elaborated our position towards a new project for Athens: give back the “nature” to the city, responding to the essential requirements of sustainability. Our “artificial nature” will reinterpreate the ancient stoa, the monumentality of the past and will be designed as an infrastructure to explore connectivity in a modern way. Moreover we will investigate the relation between green and public buildings, reestablishing the boundaries between public and private, outside and inside, leitmotif of our project. Our idea of intimacy has been translated by creating public squares which connect the green domain. This green domain has been differentiated into open wetlands, public parks, street/bridge greenery and seasonal gardens, offering more than a simple grass field. At some points the green even carves the building or crawls top of the roof in order to import and extend the sense of intimacy from outdoor to indoor. At the same time it creates a visual connection between public and private, giving the user an interactive way to explore the green in the space. The green is not only designed for the purpose of intimacy and leisure but is also integrated with the essential principles of sustainability.

MATERIALITY

ROOF LVL. ~ 9.0 M

The choice of the materials is related to circularity and flexibility. Mud excavated during the process of construction is re-purposed as a building material in the exterior facade in the form of rammed earth, that helps to tackle the extreme climate. The structure is dual in nature; heavy rammer earth and concrete is used in enclosed spaces, whereas upper structure is timber. Pre-cast modules are made from ferrock concrete which comprises 95% recycled materials. During the process of construction bamboo is used as the primary material for scaffolding, which later is repurposed as railing.
