MILAN This section contains 3 projects and a collection of 12 architectural photos made during my four-years experience at Politecnico of Milan.

The following pages start with photos introducing readers to an “Essential porfolio”, a collection of the most rapresentative images of my works, doesn’t matter if they are city - analysis or design of architecture.

A continue reserach about images to better understood the city we live in (photography) and the city it will be (projects).

STONE

New INFO - POINT Milan is a project for a public space that gives to via Torino a place to stay or simply pass trought (not only a closed building as required by municipalities).

The divison between inside and outside is a continue clear glass facade that provides to make perfectly visible the interior and the circular info-desk in its centre.

The facade sub-divided by thin wood supports seems to support the heavy volume above.

The “stone�contains an archive, a little conference room and an exibition space that hosts projects and works about the city of Milan and its region. Public transports from the cathedral square pass in front of the building every 10 min. Inside you will get free infos and wi-fi.

T H E P E N TA G O N This flexible project is an appendix to the design museum Triennale of Milan. Composed by a long plastic shell supported by a series of steel frames, it is an arcade in the park; movable curtains close the series of differen spaces. This creates a 3 in 1 facility that can be a square, a gallery or simply a succession of private spaces where users can connect their mobiles and talk with friends by screens projected on the curtains.

A project for citizens, a square of connections at different levels, but also an important temporary space for the design museum.

The direction of its arms points the ways to different monuments scattered in the park.

RADICAL ALPS This radical project tries to solve a problem as big as an Highway, the A4 Turin-Venice which divides the entire northern Italy from west to east as an italian Route 66. Its presence in the territory is like a wall between towns; the project puts together again the inhabitants of two small town of Trezzo d’Adda and Brembate, close but divided from the far 1927. The big structure proposed has two levels of interpretation; of the territory (highway) as a landmark along the road indicating the interchange between A4 and Pedemontana (an highway that will serve all the alps in the coming decades); at the local one (towns) as an important transversal link.

The cover shell protects buldings of the highway company and gives them solar energy.

Thesis ARCHITECTURE & AGRICOLTURE - possible hybridisations -

A 250 pages book to inform people about food and agricolture methods all over the world. The research starts from an analysis of how human alimentation has changed our planet and how we can reduce our foot-print.

20 examples at different levels inform readers about agri-architectures.

In collaboration with: Giacomo Guarneri

TURIN This section contains 4 projects and a collection of 12 architectural photos made during my two-years experience at Politecnico of Turin.

The following pages start with photos shot in Turin, as you can see the greenest city in Italy. Probably for this reason in these years my research moves from human Architecture to understand how nature makes its own design.

Projects that follow have in common a greater awareness of nature and its elements during the analysis process, the design and also their construction.

PA R E N T H E S I S Parenthesis is a 3 mile long market parallel to an ancient street of Turin (via Nizza) where producers from territory and city can expose their commodities to citizens. The red stripe passes throught different thematical areas: commerce (Lingotto), sports (Oval), business (project), ecc... and in its southern part it fragments to involve 10000 inhbitants of a new sustainable neighborhood where they can live, produce and sell. To avoid long displacements production areas are directly connected to the market and each area is below a block of 1500 inhabitants with green areas, swimming pool and shops. The block is composed by 4 different modules (from 25 to 100 mq) assembled in both direction, horizontal and vertical (towers) .

LIVE THE RIVER The project is located in an industrial site along Sangone, a small branch of the river Po that cuts a part of Moncalieri away from the center and the main station. Beginning from citizens services, green areas and squares, we design buildings only in a second time. To put the largest park near the main road we decide to merge all the apartments of different blocks together in a big unique structure following the river and protecting both green areas, public (ground level) and private (first level, above parkings). The result is a living-dam for 1000 inhabitants that hides cars under itself and passes above green areas giving the city an open park where people can play, eat or simply rest.

THE

GATE

THE GATE is a project that will serve turists in Chieri, a small medioeval town just behind the hill of Turin, one of the 100 “city of towers� that were built in the northern Italy during the Middle Age. Every year thousands of turist come in the town to see its churches, ancient towers and city gates, but also to reach a good restaurant to try something tipical of territory Piemonte. All these activities need a good guide trough the narrow streets of the old city center. THE gate is a modern concept for something that marks the entrance of the city, like during the medioeval times, but also an important tools for turists.

The cube will curtain the center, give infos trough screens and a personal postcard map too.

POLE - HOUSING Borgo Pallone was a small agricoltural village, just outside the roman defense wall of Turin, crossed by many irrigation channels taking water from the river Dora. During the past century channels were closed and the village was included in the town expansion plans. However the continuos presence of water has meant that the area is 6 meters below the town level. This can be dangerous for the inhabitants of Borgo Pallone who sometimes (like in 2001) have to protect their houses from river flooding. For that reason the co-housing proposed is asuspended street at the same level of the modern town ; a public an safety space for its inhabitant where socialize or simply stay in the street.

O S M O S I S OSMOSIS _ the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membr ane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

OSMOSIS is a public vertical space that moves into Regione Piemonte’s skyscraper.

It is a continuous way from square to top that connects bubble spaces on the south facade of the building. Those include different pubblic areas in which citizens can receive information about town and territory, to provide a continuous infomation flow between administration and public. Bubbles ensure 1 megawatt of energy production.
