Francesco Scarpati Born: 10/08/1991, Naples, Italy

francescoscarpati.a@gmail.com francesco-scarpati@hotmail.com

I believe in Architecture as construction, where construction is the bridge between the human ideas and material world. I believe in Architecture as dreams that allow people’s desires to come true. I believe in parametric architecture, not only as a formal language but also as a tool to solve problems where traditional construction fails. I believe in sustainable architecture, not only as a fashion, but also as the responsibility of architects for the world. I believe in resilient cities where people with different backgrounds coexist and guarantee a sustainable development of their environment. Last but not least, I believe in human progress, and that I will contribute to it.

Entry

The restoration of the Enrico Fermi School in Turin originates from the necessity to dignify the complex with an impactful intervention, allowing to re-establish the school’s role as a functional pole within the neighborhood. An external skin, embracing the building in the guise of a fence, has been designed through the parametric arrangement of red-brick tiles, and is used as a sun-shading system. The resulting boundary is only apparent: in fact, the fence only exists 2.4 meters above the sidewalk, leaving the ground floor free and permeable, and emphasizing the openness of the school towards the neighborhood. The collective and educational areas of the school have been re-defined in order to design innovative and comfortable spaces, in line with the current pe-

dagogical and educational requirements. The library and the teachers’ area have been located in the basement floor, in visual and physical connection with the green outer space of the new south-east courtyard. The “taste and flavor” area is a big space of congregation and education, situated in the basement floor close to the teachers’ area and the library and the green spaces at north-east. The redevelopment of the gym has been conceived with the goal to make the space adequate for the implementation of the gymnastical activities. The roof has been redesigned through prefabricated elements in the form of sheds, which allow the integration of photovoltaic panels for solar energy production. The gym is connected with the nei-

THE SKIN WE LIVE IN ghborhood with a ramp which offers independent access for the afternoon activities; extendable glass on the opposite side connects directly the gym with the main courtyard of the school, which therefore becomes an extension of the gym itself. Our technological and energetic retrofit proposal has been designed to guarantee the highest level of environmental comfort to the students, teachers and school staff, thanks to a bioclimatic approach aiming at maximizing the contribution of natural resources and to ensure the thermal, visual and acoustic comfort. Our project was oriented to energy saving, making the school not only a near zero energy building (NZEB), but a Plus Energy Building, thanks to the introduction of technologies for the use of

renewable energies and natural resources (solar energy, thermal solar energy, geodetic energy, rainwater collection), the use of bioclimatic strategies for the application of passive thermoregulation (solar gains, natural ventilation) and integrated active systems and installations. The new school envelope has been designed to gain the highest level of efficacy in response to the external environmental solicitations. During winter, the thermal comfort is guaranteed by an insulation in natural hemp and by a green extensive roof, whereas, during summer, the external skin, made of tiles anchored to a light steel structure and displaced according to a parametric process based on the theory of attraction points, is optimised in order to guarantee a control of the solar factor and keeping during

the year good level of natural daylighting, allowing the optimal conditions for the educational activities, and avoiding dazzles and overlight. Between the skin and the faรงade, a system of solar collectors was deployed, allowing for sanitary hot water production.

MASTER’S THESIS DESIGN ON THE EDGE Type:

Master’s Thesis The main objective of this thesis was to define a design methodology - based Location: Historic Centre of, on the use of advanced information Naples, Italy technology tools - for climate-change adaptive solutions for urban public Program: Research Project, spaces. At the same time, because of Adaptive Design, the lack of research on the microcliUrban Redevelopment, matic relationship between outdoor Building Retrofit and indoor environments, I proposed a method that allows architects to underTeam: Francesco Scarpati stand how the outdoor space affects the indoor space in terms of thermohyYear: 2016 grometric comfort. This aim was achieved by using specific environmental siSupervision: Prof. Mario Losasso mulation softwares (ENVI-met, Ecotect Prof. Valeria D’Ambrosio Analysis and EnergyPlus) and by relating their outputs into a parametric enUniversity: Università degli Studi di vironment (Grasshopper 3D). Napoli Federico II Moreover I applied the proposed methodology on an urban study project, which embraces a critical area of the historic centre of Naples between the medieval town and Garibaldi

16

Square, where Dominique Perrault’s subway station has been recently built. After analysing the urban context and identifying the environmental critical areas, I defined a Masterplan, where, on one hand, I made a link with the Perrault’s project and the axis of Garibaldi Square and, on the other hand, I tried to recall the trace of the medieval walls of the city, that at the present time is no longer recognizable. The previous aim was achieved by limiting the green in the city inside the walls and designing a park outside them. Three specific architectural themes emerged from the Masterplan scale. The first theme concerns the redevelopment project of the Duchesca district. Emphasizing the axis that, thanks to Perrault’s project, starting from Piazza Garibaldi, runs into the


DESIGN ON THE EDGE neighborhood, and keeping the historically justified principle of limiting the green in the city inside the walls, I designed a “boulevard” characterized by artificial tree structures. These structures were generated using a form-finding parametric software and considering Frei Otto’s studies on dendriform structures. The second theme is a retrofit project of the building in Via Mancini. Considering the impossibility of demolish the building and at the same time its importance as scenic backdrop of the adjacent Garibaldi Square, I defined a re-cladding solution, ideally covering the building with a “veil” that guarantees good technological and environmental performances and a new suitable look. The last theme is “The Reconstruction of Memory” and includes all the design choices that restore the historical and architectural identity of the trace and surviving fragments of the medieval walls. Starting from an analysis of historical maps, I recognized the trace of the medieval walls, which I restored with a pedestrian strip in weathering steel that connects the different surviving walls fragments. This band rises next to Piazza Garibaldi in the form of a structure of vertical panels that reinterprets the rhythm of the walls’ defensive towers and creates a scenic background between the Duchesca district and Perrault’s project. 17

ground floor up to the top of the building. The spaces between these paths are used for offices and residences. The difference between public and private spaces can also be read on the facade, which is organized into two layers: “The transparent pattern”, a semitransparent steel grid, covers the public areas that make up the “vertical city”, avoiding glare from the outside. On the other hand, “The Shadovoltaic Panels”, a system of domotic panels that move during the year depending on the position of the sun, maximizing the daylight, cover the private spaces of offices and residences. Simulations were performed with Grasshopper’s plugin Honeybee to verify the efficiency of the technological daylighting solutions.

volumes are filled with styrofoam and then covered by concrete. The static height of the structure results from the inversion of the moment line. The biggest challenge in this project is to find a suitable constructive framework to model the bridge. Here we opted for a textile formwork. The process consists in cutting one or more boards of wood, in ordrer to subsequently bring the geotextile into the desired shape. The resulting volume is then filled with concrete, so that a completely free form-finding is possible. In order to exactly control and shape the project, the parametric software Grasshopper was used, with which it was possible to design a 3d Model of the bridge, that, with the help of the Auotdesk Software 123D Make, was then laser-cutted and finally transferred in a physical model.

The two main results attained are about the difference of pressure between the front and back of the building and a better wind stream on the surface of the building. Two are the main passive indoor systems applied to climate the building. On one hand a massive wall is heated by the solar radiation and returns the heat accumulated during the night to the indoor enviornment. On the other hand a basement, similar to a horizzontal Wall of Trombe, is heated by the solar radiation as well, creating a natural system of ventilation through the inside.

AT’s workshops are the most popular courses on algorithmic modelling in Italy, directed by Arturo Tedeschi. During the courses was possible to achieve a strong competence on the use of parametric architecture and design skills, with the algorithms-based software Grasshopper3D. The training process was splitted in three workshops, that took one week each. The first one, Plug it² , the most popular course on algorithmic modelling in Italy, directed by Arturo Tedeschi, provided to attendees a strong competence on the use of modelling tools (RHINO) and algorithms-based techniques (GRASSHOPPER) exploring relations between creativity and deep control of complex geometries. The second step, Ecologic Patterns², explored the theme of Freeform Architecture with particular reference to the rationalization of complex shapes (PQ meshes, developable strips) and op-

timization based on environmental inputs (solar, thermal and acoustic). The use of a grasshopper was simultaneous with softeares for environmental-energy analysis and physical simulation. The last workshop was Form Finding Strategies, that concerned the strategies and main form-finding techniques through the use of the physics engine Kangaroo integrated plug-ins of structural analysis such as Millipede and Karamba. The techniques was applied at different scales, from architecture (surface modeling and simple compression shell) to product design, where digital simulations were integrated to refinement techniques (Weaverbird).
