Portfolio

I am a M.A. in Architecture from IUAV University, in Venice. After my graduation I decided to enhance my knowledge trough both educational and professional paths: I joined an Interior Architecture Course focused on the fashion system, especially on the process of reading and translating in actual spaces the brand identity; I also worked as intern in London, taking care of different tasks about Interior projects. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a diligent, well-organized worker, capable of managing different tasks keeping fastened rhythm. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very passionate about my job and I like to provide the best quality service I can in order to give valuable contributions to the team. Sketches and photographs are essential parts of my creative process, I prefer to let my images reveal my thoughts, this is why I decided to dedicate part of this book also to something not exclusively related to in office-production.

Borbonese Flagship Store in Bologna Encounters Fashion Research Italy Foundation

Customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; engagement is the main task for a space which aims to guarantee an unforgettable shopping experience. Technologies and customers related services pushed retails spaces to become too oppressive. This is why the Borbonese Flagship Store is thought to be designed still as an engaging environment but in a more relaxed way. In order to represent a historic and well-known Italian brand, the entire design concept is founded on the relationship between clients, products, spaces and outdoor context. Meeting people, crossing different spaces for dimensions or level of lighting, the constant sights towards the city is an Italian peculiarity, which subconsciously belongs to the everyday life. The design concept is also led by the fact that the actual store presents a lot of weaknesses such as small places, not well organized and a very small selling surface compared to the amount of space left for the storage.

For extended version: https://issuu.com/federicalinguanti/docs/borbonese

Two storage/display systems rule the entire project: the grid, which allow to hang each product separately, giving it the deserved dignity to be appreciated by the costumer and it permits furthermore to arrange the modules in different ways in order to contain independently bigger or smaller products; the second one is a geometric sculpture which repeatedly evolves to create specific compressed or enlarged, light or dark atmospheres. Considering that the brief asked to design a store for Men, all the atmospheres and material choices are specifically chosen to recreate a sophisticated cave.

UN-veiled Opening Event Riba North, Liverpool

London

Internship KHBT, 2017.

Further the design activity, I was involved in the organization of the exhibition inside the office for the London Festival of Architecture and taking part to the opening event of the Riba North Headquarters, for which it was thought an installation between the two buildings: a sequence of cut curtains, which are commonly used to cover the scaffoldings during the constructions of buildings, could recreate the volumes of significant buildings of Liverpool, the city where the discussed offices are effectively located.

Internship

ZDM9, Offenbach am Main. KHBT, 2017.

The project is based in Germany, Offenbach. According to the plans, I drew the detailed 1:20 sections and amended the elevations as well. During the process they were found always better solutions about the structural and not structural layers of slabs and walls. After the adjustment of plans and sections some design possibilities came: it was asked to think about different solutions within the living room and the kitchen, gathered as a single open space. The tasks consists in thinking two different systems: the first one was made of the storage space of the kitchen, composed by the space under the stairs and a screen created by the sequence of 3x15 cm wood shutters, the second one was essentially the chimney, which needed to be designed in order to keep intact the living space with its values, like to be an open space pointed towards the nature outside.

The first studies where focused on visuals of the different options.

Master Thesis

Agghicunu cuntinuu. Siracusa 2016. Integration according to a dynamic continuous system Prof. Ruben Baiocco

Considering a crucial theme as the migrations from Africa in southern Italy, we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t choose to start with an idea to process, but instead the researches, made at different scales, have led in a natural way to some possible solutions. The thesis concerns the Province of Syracusae and consists in a double proposal for the hospitality of migrants: the first scenario is set at the Port of Augusta, one of the most exploited points of arrival in Sicily, during the landing operations; while the second offers a longer-term perspective, within the context of the centre of the city of Syracusae. The first project, placed inside the commercial port, is composed of the study of a standard module, which can be adapted at all the different functions necessary after the landing of migrants, as the operations of health checks, identification and reception of short-term; secondly were designed different possible dispositions of these modules. The second project is located inside the city of Syracuse,

inside Borgata Santa Lucia, and it offers urban scenarios where the welcome of the migrants can be considered the catalyst element for a synergic relationship within the city, not only among the people but also between different functional areas, which have lost their original level of productivity. The task consisted mainly to prove that the actual keys to address the issue of migrations may be the flexibility (as in the case of the harbor) and the ability of sharing spaces (as in the case of the city), for this reason it was preferred to show different models instead of design a single artefact.

Bafang Muslim District, Linxia, Gansu Province, China.

Joint design workshop - CAUP Tongji - Master

Urban Regeneration of Linxia Bafang Muslim Residential Neighborhood Prof.Margherita Turvani - Zhang Jianlong

The Workshop was initially focused on the housing issues of the muslim district of Bafang, inside the chinese city of Linxia. This part of the city is a completely indipendent element, in the centre of it. The municipality already organized a sort of plan in order to repair the worst problems of the area but our project aimed to reach a more stable situation trough a long term strategy. Our group, composed by two chinese students and two italian students, decided to focus on the welcome issue that could be realized in the area that was assigned to us. The analyzed area of the Bafang is mostly residential, for this reason the most adequate solution seemed to be to meld the housing matters with the touristic issues, to meld the housing matters with the touristic issues, trough the organization of a diffused welcome system, according the rules of the italian model of the diffused lodging. Thinking about how the municipality could help the inhabitants with public funding in order to improve the life conditions and at

the same time to create the requirements to attract tourists, a general strategy was created. We tried to show the steps of the possible renovation of the district, considering the project of a single house, designed by the rules expressed in the general strategy. The peculiarity of the house were its historic value, the space of its courtyards and the presence of different functions. We tried to save the traditional atmosphere allocating spaces between inhabitants and possible tourists.

Stadt & Silhouette

Prof. Manuel Bäumler, 2015.

A painting of the Italian artist Canaletto represents clearly the imaginary that have people about the Dresdener Elbe shore: impressive Baroque buildings which reflect on the water and green spaces which keep free the bank, in order to live a closer relationship with the river. After the bombs of the Second World War the image of the city didn’t change, on the other hand the urban composition suffered of a wrong renovation of the residential area between the city centre and the suburbs. Pirnaische Vorstadt built the waterfront, following the majestic volume of the Brühlsche Terrasse with its gardens, the Academy of Fine Arts and the churces. The project aims to the reconstruction of a complex but more unified system of houses of five floors in line, which creates a system of yards that diversify themselves by the grade of publicity and the presence of different users. The project divides the area in two parts, in a North-to-South and public-to-private way.

Axonometry of the masterplan.

The main roads which design the two parts of the project end with a square, which is located in front of the landmarks of the site. In this way the silhouette of the last part of the city centre is renovated, so as the plan that now consider the importance of large common spaces where people can meet, inside the district and also in front of the river.

Return to Palermo

Prof. Sergio Pascolo, 2015.

Next to the centre of Palermo, in Sicily, the port presents contradictions like beautiful sea but dirty beaches, Baroque buildings close to the houses born during the construction speculation and the existence of a lot of free outdoor spaces against the difficulty to reach them due to the lack of a lighting system and safe crosses for pedestrians. Unregulated construction and state of abandon are the main characteristics of the area between the train station and the port. The most important challenge of this project is to introduce in a wrong fixed context a completely new type of building: the MUB, Mixed Use Building. A mixture of function can solve the contradictions of this area in an innovative way which respect the traditional lifestyle of the location, where people tend to spend a lot of time together and in outdoor spaces. The project consider the existing number of lodgers in the two buildings which have to be replaced by a better system,

and it is also organized by phases according to both construction site and inhabitants needs. Houses are mixed with shops and common areas for people of different ages in the same building; it was important also to think about the students, considering the housing matter and the functions related to the study, due to the closeness of the University to this area. Plans and sections are designed by the mixture of the many flows and points of resting of the different users. The disposition of the blocks is related so much to the architectural composition as the energetic issues.

Industrial Archaeology Cover to discover

Prof.Margherita Vanore, 2014.

The project area is an ex industrial area of Naples northern to the main train station. Besides the advanced state of decay of the different buildings, deeper problems concern the urban structure, the disposition of the function in the city and the morphology of the terrain show themselves in a veiled way. The car traffic, so close to the interested buildings, represented another difficult issue. We decided to start the solution of the different matters with a simple, clear action: cover the area. Two different levels of the city are connected by a huge roof, which creates two life systems : the first on the upper surface, with a square, and the second one on the underlying level with different closed spaces, which contains all the public functions, like artisan shops or thE theaters. The regulatory concept, in a technological way, is the supporting structure, composed by a sequence of opened 5 m diameter cylinders. These cylinders have the main goal to let the sunlight in, and some of them are

also transformed in services spaces containing the elevators. Following the idea of â&#x20AC;&#x153;The sphere and the needleâ&#x20AC;?, explained by Rem Koolhas in Delirious New York, a sequence of growing buildings in height creates the front on the main congested road, and they stand as start, limit and filter at the same time of the project. In this way a synergic collaboration is activated between high, plane and underground elements.

Railway Venice - Cortina Fasten your seatbelts (?) Prof. Stefano Munarin, 2014.

The project is extented on a line which goes from Venice to Cortina (an holiday mountains location) following the railways. These railways arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t used anymore so frequently, but they lay in part on a trafficated commutersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; system. For this reason, the analysis of the line was, at the beginning, developed by points, represented by the single stations, and then it was assembled in areas with the same characteristics. From these different functional areas, divided in stops more used by commuters for work and others used by commuters for tourism, it was chosen a station which shows matters not only trough the main line of the project, but also inside the city. In Lavarone, a touristic location in the Dolomites, the station represents a strong division between two different areas of the city: the centre and the facilities. The main problem is the difference of height between these two functions, more than the real distance.

The train station, in red, is the starting point of the design process.

The consequential solution of these different matters seems to be an element which can, at the same time, join two different parts of the city and solve the problem of the traffic jam. In this way a system which includes the study of the element, with its start and finish point, represented by two different composed common spaces, become the real complex project.

Whole studied system for the better mobility inside the city.

Focus on the system of the new square linked to the train station and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;downtownâ&#x20AC;? composed by a bridge, which contains different functions.

Different architectural elements are designed in order to frame typical scenes of the city.

The project is based on the repetition of a 3,75 m x 3,75 m element, which represents a baloon frame structure in X-lam, thought as a temporary architecture. The module repetes itself for three times in its length and develops on two floors. This stilt house is located in Torcello, and island in Venice’s lagoon. The project is realized in reference to Le Corbusier’s Cabanon, for what concerns the study of the Existenz Minimum, instead it is inspired to Unitè D’Habitation for the serial repetition. The peculiar composition of the structure has as main goal to frame the lagoon landscape. For this reason there aren’t any windows in the long sides of the structure, instead the short side is totally opened, in order to gain light and to admire the landscape. The concept of the volume is based on the idea of suspension: on the first floors there are less closed modules

than the second floor. The house is divided in three parts by a central services block, composed by the articulation of the furniture around the stairs. Like in the venetian houses, there are two different entrances: the main entry way is the one in front of the water, which can be reached only with a boat; the second one is the back door, which access is available by feet. The whole of the stilt houses creates a system on the water, which ends with a raised square.

Workshop 3

Urban Archaeology Prof. Fabrizio Barozzi, 2014.

The main goal of the project was to demonstrate the possibility to improve the industrial area of Venice, called Marghera, trough a punctual operation resumed in a common strategy. The theme was The Constellation, called in this way due to the fact that the project aimed to requalify the single Industrial Cathedrals in order to use them as catalyst of the regeneration of Marghera, which is composed by an urban diffuse modular texture. Our project consisted in one of the entrance of the whole, built by a system of towers, linked with the exiting renovated warehouses. In this way the project of something new guaranted a better quality and mutual relationship of the present buildings.

Comparison between the industrial towers and the designed tower, which faces the two aspects of the city: industry and history.

Workshop 2

Broswing Marghera Toward a new Marghera

Prof. Felipe Gonzales Pacheco, 2013. The project was located in Marghera, the industrial area of Venice. The intention was to develop a strategy following a Matrix which focused on the concepts of scale (S - M - L), time (past - present - future), geography (culture - morphology urban context). So we decided to apply a single strategy in order to solve the connected matters. A bridge for pedestrian, cycles and tram could be the start of a renovated relationship between the historic and industrial Venice. This link was made also in the vertical way building a tower, which can create a connection as a landmark with the bell tower of San Marco square.

Study process for the balance of the installation and final chosen model and realization.

Workshop 1

Urban Regeneration

Prof. Javier Corvalan, 2012.

The program of the workshop was divided in three weeks, developing the project trought different scale. The intention was to build a structure which could hold itself on a single point. Each group suggested a possible structure, building a model in 1:10 scale and after that a jury would have chosen the winner model, we spent the last week building it in a beach in Veniceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lagoon, which had the peculiarity to change during the day because of the flows. The project grew up as a challenge against the gravity and the water, in order to create finally a synergic action with them.

Geometry, light, texture: the extended tradition. Tokyo, Naoshima, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe Personal experience in Japan, 2017.

This trip taken after the graduation and a few months of internship had an essential meaning for my personal architectural growth. I experienced all the various buildings with a renovated interest based on a deeper knowledge of the designed space and a greater appreciation for the construction details, which can effectively build the atmosphere inside. Evocative scenarios were the most appropriate objects in order to experiment sketching and photographing skills.

Materials and lights. Synergic action. Lisboa (PO) Prof. Francesco Cacciatore, 2016.

The portuguese architecture presents a lot of peculiar characteristics, for this study trip the most important were the sunlight, the volume of the building and the traditional and modern materials. It was interesting to see how the relationship, elegant and wise, realized by the different architects creates in every case a peculiar synergic action between the building, the environment (of the city or of the nature, as the case) and the person who is experiencing the space.

In a fragment of a second you can understand: Things you know, things you don’t know, things you don’t know that you don’t know, conscious, unconscious, things which in a fragrant of a second you can react to: we can all imagine why this capacity was given to us as human beings – I guess to survive. [...] I call this atmosphere. Peter Zumthor This Photography book aims to demonstrate how the architecture and its atmosphere can be read as a game of lines, directions and mutual relationships with the geometry of the nature, measured by the human size.

Study trip The Museums (CH-DE-AU) Prof.ssa Franca Pittaluga, 2014.

Museums were the object of study of the trip. Architecture and technology, visitors and nature mixed in a single system, according to the peculiarity of the architect who designed the building. The pictures aim to represent the key concepts of every museum: colours as starting point for the project, the way in to the building of the visitor as basic principle, an apparently simple structure which creates in a complex way the best comfort condition for the people visiting the exposition.
