PILOT SUSTAINABLE LIVING: REQUALIFICATION OF AN INDUSTRIAL AREA_ VERCELLI THESIS PROJECT
in teamwork with: Mariapia Bettiol, Giorgia Cilli, Margherita Locatelli, Emanuele Romani
Settled in a strategic point, at the intersection between artificial and natural infrastructures and crossed by the Cervetto creek, the project area contains great potentials. The aim is to settle a complex of sustainable living. The localization becomes a great chance for declining the passage from the city to the countryside. At first the intervention assumes value for the whole city, becoming central knot of a urban and environmental wide riqualification system. A slow mobility urban project has been developed, with a public space and river riqualification, enriched by botanic studies (self-mantaining and local lawn varieties) and able to structure a new net for the city. In the area we create a compact settlement with commercial ground on the main axe, structuring the corner facing the intersection with the beltway. On the contrary, inside we can find a lower and natural architecture, linked to the agricoltural environment and strongly characterized by the presence of the creek and of its riverbanks (a linear park and urban vegetable gardens). An existing farmhouse is included in the project. In order to characterize the area in all the sustainable aspects, functional and social mixitĂŠ become necessary. The housing settlement (traditional, temporary and collective) is acompanied by commercial, a multifunctional space (a 0km green market linked to the vegetable riverbank gardens), a co-work building, an eco-swimming pool, a kindergarden and a vegetable glasshouse. Each of the buildings has been developed within a specific technological choice: a dry wood system for the market, clay for kindergarden and ecoswimmingpool, prefabricated wood panels and rice hunk added concrete for the traditional housing, up to the timber frame wood structure and straw bale walls system for the co-housing.. The project earns high energetic efficiency and the decrese of coasts of builiding, maintenance and use, thanks to natural, local and waste materials. Private spaces for bike parking and recycled trash are provided to the buildings. Therefore, co-housing promotes common living partecipation, offering a reuse craft laboratory, a bike fixing garage, a loundry, a wide common space, a small gymnasium and a 24 glasshouse, managed by the inhabitants. The majority of the building are aligned on the heliocentric axe and most of them are provided with photovotaic and termic solar panels. In this way the environmental impact of the project is decreased as well as the economic investment.

MULTIPLIED CENTRALITIES EUROPAN 10: GRAZ in teamwork with: Alessandro Benetti, Mirko Gatti, Simone Zanni
Puntigam is a suburban area, located just a few minutes outside Graz still strongly exploited for both industrial and farming production. Due to the natural expansion of the city, the area is currently emerging as one of the most interesting areas of development. The current perception that one gets of Puntigam is of a chaotic mix of farming landscape, factories and small suburban properties. Although, proximity to the river side, the presence of a dismissed rail track (heritage of an industrial past) hs been considered as a backbone-facility for a possible new urban design, we can imagine a dense amount of residential and commercial clusters to be spread across the area in order to challenge the role of Graz itself as an attractive pole. The land is strongly signed from the ancient water draining system, whose traces determine a subcession of voids. The major ones are agricultural fields, the minors are antropized leftovers. Our goal is to estabilish a new set of centralities (radial and orthogonal) able to challenge a development and users flux. The small voids perfectly fits to this aim, working as plugs for the whole web. The green surface that has been preserved by this capillary re-urbanization can now be reorganized on the base of its ecological potential, with the aim of exploiting its enormous environmental value. The main goal of this second phase is to reduce the ecological footprint of the future inhabitants by the dispose of most of the emissions produced by the new settlements development.

WEST SIDE STRATEGY Synecdoche in Dublin: a part for the whole developed with: LaboratorioPermanente Architectural Office (Arch. Nicola Russi, Arch. Angelica Sylos Labini), Alessandro Benetti, SImone Zanni
The European Forum for architectural policies in association with the Royal Institute of Architects in Ireland selected LaboratorioPermanente for Converging Territories, a pilot project promoting cultural exchange ithrough the European Community nations. The study concerns a urbanistic strategy for Dublin city development, dramatically affected by economic crysis. The city council requires densification, reuse of the big amount of abandoned buildings and lots and an activation of the general economy. The proposal moves from the idea of mantaing the typical Dubliner cityscape and taste, interveening with a process of filling the voids when needed and projecting them when necessary. The strategy is applied on a specific case (Cork Street) located in West Dublin, area where more the potentials of the city are underrated. The final outcome of the process is appliable to all the main streets of the city. The aim is not just working with architectural volums to gain the required density, but to always project the buildings in relationship with the free space of the lot. That’s why the research offers different typologies and proposals, always satisfying the imrpovement both of build volume and of empty ground space. These ones are studied in the way to work in continuity with the street surface, so able to gain characteristics of quality able to support public life. The improvement of the medium height of the new buildings is located in the backyard of the lot, so not to close the streetscape but mantaining a free sky sight and a traditional street front. 46

TOPOTYPO EUROPAN 11:CLERMONT FERRAND developed with: BEMaa architectural office
The aim of the Europan 11 in the site is the urban redefinition of a strategical area that will work as a core point for the city, involved in different transformation processes. The TGV line will connect it fastly to Paris and Lion and it will become one of the knots of the national net of ecoville. The request is about social housing settlement, a park and a urban structure able to absorb the railway presence. The choice is to consider Clermont in its whole potentials, from the local ones up to the national ones. Enriched by amazing landscapes (considering volcanoes and natural parks) and wide natural variety, the area perfectly fits to a sustainable approach, extendable to all the project scales. Working on different subjects and scales of research, the project is developed not simply according to its architectonical subjects, but carries on a sustanable role of ecological corridor and spot of a natural pedestrian system. The park, developed by folowing principles of permaculture, is the linking subjects to the different architecture involved in the process. Sustainability is approached not only concerning an environmental and energetic aspect, but also as a possible keypoint for introducing a sustainable sociality, involving common places, coworking, shared structures and promoting relationships able to infrastructure space and give strenght to the proposed mixitĂŠ..

CHAPITO CIRCUS SCHOOL PROJECT FOR THE CITY OF LISBON The new Chapito Circus school is projected in a complex site, actually ocupied by a city market. The urban void obtained by the demolition of the market building actually highlight a triangular hole, suffering big differences in level of the angles., as often happens in the Portugues capital city. This morphological limit has been used as a device and pushed to the edge. The Chapito School projects wants in fact not just to be an introverted funcion, but a dynamic actiity interacting with the city. The relationship between inner user and urban passer-by is the firm point of the project. The two buildings proposed for the school and housing of the students, create an occasion for the city. Their roofs become urban terraces and open air theaters, in direct communication with the Tejo river located on the South. The public space at the core of the area, on the other hand, is doubled and interacts actively with the traianing jym at the underground level of the circus school, flexible in its space and able to be completely opened on the new square. Commercial activities are settled underground (that means on the new square level) the housing, both for serving the residence and to activate the public space. The Southern corner of the area (that is naturally at a lower level) is the favored acces to the area. The suggestion for the materials of the public space comes from the city itself. Just a few meters higher than the rooftops infact a urban wood is strongly present in the cityscape. It actually belongs to a green ray, including the Sao Jorge Castle and heading down to the river. The new square partecipates in it with a massive vertical garden, partecipating with the city to the new stage scenery. 58

STARGATE URBAN INTERVENTION ON ROMAN RUINES THEATER LISBON The project consists in the assignment of urban quality to the ancient roman theater ruines, settled in the fascinating neighbourhood of Alfama. The approach to the project has been both at a wide scale up to a detailed one. The site is in fact in a key position, thanks to the Alfama hill that generates suggestive visual points toward the river Tejo. Actually the roman theater ruines are abandoned under a steel roof, facing, but not relationing anyhow, with the roman ruines museum. The urban approach sets the project at a core point of a green net invading Alfama (and actually fisically invading every void in the nearby), considering it as a part of the green ray the start from the SAo Jorge Hill, goes through the Castel, down to the Cathedral (including ruines too) and arrives down to the river. The green ray is overlayered to a ruin ray. The architectural approach allows both to include the ruines experience into a everyday walking path (based on the ancient trace) and to connec the ruines with the actual museum, plus the extention of the museum in an abandoned, reprojected, biulding, facing directly with the ruine at an underground level. The path that goes from the city, to the ruins up to the roof of the thater for reaching an amazing â&#x20AC;&#x153;miradouroâ&#x20AC;?, typical element of the city of Lisbon, behaves as a stargate for the user, that naturally will cross different worlds and eras, experiencing personally the ruines. and enjoying the green roof, directing the eyes sight down toward the green ray landscape.

MUSSEL TEMPORARY HOUSING AND PUBLIC SPACE: MILAN in teamwork with: Giorgia Cilli, Margherita Locatelli
The project acts as a morphological intervention aiming to define and arranging the urban void delimited by Via Giotto, Via del Burchiello and Via Pagano. The project deals with the pre-existing facing buildings both for continuity and for contrapposition. The alignment on Via del Burchiello in fact allows to redefine the ancient fabric trace by redrowing the study area through a contemporary project, clearly in contrapposition -formal and volumetrical- with the preexisting city The project asks for being crossed, perceived, used and walked by the city user. The starting act of rising and sinking the ground, slowly enriched by integrating public functions. These both work as public space activators and, in the meantime, strenghten the urban intervention. The soil along Via del Burchiello slowly rises from the ground, while, just a few meters on the South, the wide flexible void retires into the subway entrance. Under the new level projected soill, two buildings have been projected. The first one, stone composed, consists in a double heights exposition gallery with inclined ceiling. The second one is actually the simple glassed enclosure of a public space area. the commercial spaces so obtained are in fact light and permeable (both to light and to users paths). The first and second floor, entirely covered by a cortain skin, host temporary housing and a bar. The permeability theme has been followed in the study on the single housing proposals.
