SOCIAL HOUSING PROJECT IN KATOWICE

2020/2021 - Master thesis Project “ A Social Housing project as urban and architectural renovation tool in the center of Katowice “

Katowice is one of the most dynamic cities in Poland and it is implementing a process of recovery and enhancement of the existing urban fabric. The project area, in fact, involves one of the central areas of the city and is located at the top of one of the most important streets in Katowice, Ulica Mariacka. The project stems from a competition drawn up by the SARP of Katowice and aims to renovate three historic Kamienica buildings and use them as Social Housing. Indeed, the project provides for the definition of 40 apartments to be allocated to a segment of the population that cannot access the real estate market due to income, especially the elderly, young couples and recent graduates. In the current state, the buildings appear to be abandoned and are in conditions of decay caused mainly by lack of maintenance. The project aims to summarize through the theme of Social Housing the concept of urban recovery, through a new definition of internal courtyard, and architectural, implemented with the renovation of the main buildings that are in conditions of great degradation. To overcome the problem of abandoned and degraded internal courtyards that characterize the project area, a semi-public space is designed that allows a one-to-one relationship with the main street and guarantees a redevelopment of the area itself. The façade along Ulica Mariacka will undergo a conservative restoration, to maintain the historical character of the buildings and to respect the architectural features of the context. The internal façade is designed with the development of a modular, economical and sustainable system of loggias. This proposal arises from the need to ensure a flexible system capable of adapting to changes.

MARIACKA 30,32,34 NOW The project involves three historic buildings along the important Ulica Mariacka in Katowice and stems from a competition published by the SARP of Katowice. The project lot consists of three main buildings, numbers 30,32,34, and three posthumous additions. For the latter, demolition is planned. Currently the buildings are in a state of decay and neglect, despite the fact that they are historic buildings and overlook one of the main streets of Katowice. The buildings have a residential nature and this can be seen in the plan, with a rather classic structural and distribution scheme. From a technological point of view, they are masonry buildings. The study of the state of affairs highlighted greater compositional care with regard to the main prospectus, while the internal courtyard is narrow due to the presence of the additions 30A, 32A and 32B.

THE COURT The addition that hosts coworking spaces has a modest height, to avoid the visual occlusion effect that instead occurred in the actual state due to the presence of the additions.

SOCIAL HOUSING Inside the building, apartments have been distributed for young couples, the elderly and recent graduates. The apartments have different sizes to guarantee flexibility to the users’ demand. The ground floor of each building is instead intended for more collective and service functions, such as workshops, workshops or libraries, to ensure a relationship both between the tenants of the building and with the city itself. The goal is to create a community heterogeneous and cohesive. The internal courtyard was modeled with ramps to ensure access to anyone. LONGITUDINAL SECTION

POLAR - ICE - R

2019 - Architettura e Composizione III Teamwork: Benedetta Baldassarre, Gianluca Casalnuovo, Giacomo Rinaldi A Polarizer is an attention catalyzing architectural object, simultaneously distinguishing itself from and interacting with an environment, to generate a new, inclusive context. This is the starting point for a formal, rigorous and focused exploration that starts from the definition of a simple, topologically and geometrically coherent cell, which aggregationand variation generates an irreducible complex assembly. A scenario-based investigation beyond mere geometric coherence adds constructive/tectonic and volumetric/ spatial structuring rules to refine form generation and control of internal spatial logics, in a progressive refinement of the rules from which the massing is generated. Potential functional mappings unravel from this point on, independent of the form/function/ typology functionalist bond. The architectural volume shapes its own rooting ground, grafting underground levels, accesses, paths and views. The aggregative logic explored leads to an architecture that has its strength in the “space-circulatory” articulation. Internal hyper-connectivity is achieved, physically, through a polycentric ramified path, enriched by secondary flows that allow visual and/or physical connection with the staggered volumes to truthfully expose the project levels. The façade continuous, stress-based design unifies the overhanging volumes, creation a unified whole without renouncing the autonomy of parts and processes.

Sassuolo Renewal

2018 - Urban Planning Tecnhiques Laboratory Teamwork: Benedetta Baldassarre, Francesca Buda, Gianluca Casalnuovo, Davide Lombardi, Claudia Minafra, Giacomo Rinaldi The project involves the area near Sassuolo railway stations. An inspection in the city and a meeting with citizens have highlighted positive and negativepoints for each of the neighborhoods near the Sassuolo – Reggio Emilia and Sassuolo –Modena train stations.The point of this project is to revitalize abandoned and degraded places, thanks to a direct link between some different places of the city that are divided by physical, social and cultural barriers.The best result is to have a dynamic and alive place, which can be a nice visiting card for the city. First of all, an overall design of the area’s mobility has been done to create a direct link to Reggio Emilia and Fiorano Modenese, in the opposite way, with the new underpass, only avaible for car. The public transport service has an important point in the new square. Near this area there is a new bus and pullman station.The people can park their cars in the new basement car park and they can move on foot or by bicycle using the hierarchical system of pedestrian street.The most import point of the project is the new square, between the two train stations, to revitalize rundown area. This square will be a node for four different districts: it’s directly connected to the city center by Via Menotti and it represents a meeting point between areas near the two train stations. Also the new urban park, designed to the north of the SAS-RE train station, is connected to the central square with a new pedestrian way.On the main lines traced, a modular flooring is grafted, playing on the alternation of wood-grass materials. It goes beyond the net boundaries of the block and arrives up to the urban park.The

This project aims to transform a vicious circle into a virtuous circle: eliminating physical, social and cultural barriers, the accessibility of public spaces increases, these spaces are more alive and dynamic and there is a decrease in degradation both environmental-urban and social.

The square represents a versatile space, in which there are many new activities of collective interest. They are placed inside box-containers, which refer directly to the theme of stations and rail freight transport. They are economic, temporary and easy-to-assemble structures that can be turned to different functions.

Auditorium in Piazza dei Miracoli 2017 - Ideas competitions for startfortalents ( PISACALL ) Teamwork: Benedetta Allegrini, Benedetta Baldassarre, Francesca Buda, Davide Lombardi, Giacomo Rinaldi

Pisa is a city with a long history that has preserved its ancient charm. The Middle Ages was the period of greatest splendor, during which expansionist ambitions and flourishing commercial traffic made Pisa one of the four Maritime Republics. To careful economic growth policies they were joined intentions of cultural development that led to the foundation of some of the most important academic centers in Italy. The University, founded in the XIV century, and the Normale School, established in the XIX century, are located a short distance from Piazza del Duomo, better known as Cathedral Square, one of the places of greater recognition of the city. The Cathedral and the bell tower of the twelfth century - the “Leaning Tower” - make up the square and are among the monuments recognized as UNESCO heritage. PISA CONFERENCE HALL will be integrated in a context in which instances of the past are very strong today. The proposed project will have to know how to setup one crucial point that represents a three union between Piazza del Duomo and the University campus. Architecture that will become an important contemporary piece to the historic city. .
