BLUE HOUSE IN VIA DEL BOLLO, MILANO, ITALY
Blue House is the first architectonical project I designed in Politecnico di Milano and in my whole life. I’ve been challenged to work on a very small and restricted site in the very centre of Milano, and to design a building supposed to complete and become the head of the built curtain of Via del Bollo. The program asked for a flower shop and a cafè at the ground floor, two family apartments and an attic that could host two persons. Once decided to use the whole available area as a site, I started the design from
the interiors, establishing not to use walls to separate the domestic spaces and to design an integrated piece of architectonical modular furniture instead. The whole circulation inside the apartment happens around the wooden furniture system, which serves as storage. As a tradition in Milanese residential architecture the body of the architecture is very introvert and austere in facing the public street. On the contrary it becomes very open and lively when dealing with its hidden garden, on which it overlooks through a system of balaustrade and balconies, enriched by plants and flowers.

MONTESSORI KINDERGARTEN IN VIA SANTA CROCE, MILANO, ITALY
Maria Montessori’s idea of an education system was visionary and avant-garde: she understood that what was important for a child, regardless of his/her age, was to learn to behave as an independent being in a collective context. While designing this extension of Arrigo Arrighetti’s nursery school in the centre of Milan my focus was targeted on providing different dimensions of intimacy, public, and privacy to the children: the kindergarten should have been a sort of children-scale city for pupils 1 to 3 years old. I started by dividing the available site in four stripes through concrete walls, and
I differentiated them by characterizing the roofs with elementary shapes and primary colours. The main spaces of the kindergarten are the classes of the “blue” stripe, conceived as pupils’ own houses. On both sides of every class are two “public spaces”, an outdoor and an indoor one, where children of different classes are free to meet each other and play. The aim of the project is to leave the children free of deciding where to be and what to do, avoiding to enclose them in one single room, and offering them different spatial occasions, leaving them free to wander and discover, relying on their very first insights.

A CULTURAL CENTRE IN FORMER CINEMA ADRIANO IN VIA PADULLI, MILANO, ITALY
Cinema Adriano is one example of many in the heritage of abandoned cinemas that is spread around the area of Milano. Built in the 50’s, it closed its doors after 25 years of activity and never opened them again. In the last years, thanks to the flexible and impressive spatiality offered by the typology, more and more cinemas in Milano are re-opening their doors with new programs and functions. The program we designed addresses the issue of the multi-culturality of the area where the site is. Many problems of integration came to light when analyzing the neighborhood: therefore we decided
to tackle the problem by offering a centre where different cultures could meet each other and overcome diffidence through the act of learning by doing: in order to achieve this we programmed a series of culture-crossing workshops to happen in the cinema: a collective kitchen, a rehearsal room, a radio, a school for learning languages, a tailoring workshop. Based on the approach called adaptive reuse we decided not to modify the original structure of the manufact, and to set in a parasite organism that takes advantage of the occasions offered by the spaciality of former Cinema Adriano.

SLUPPEN LIBRARY IN SLUPPEN, TRONDHEIM, NORWAY
The waters of Nidelva river had been, more than one thousand years ago, the occasion for the establishment of Nidaros, the ancient capital city of Norway. Today Nidaros turned its name into Trondheim. Since 18th Century the city of Trondheim started to quickly grow, but for some reason the expansion of its urbanization lost interest in the river, leaving its banks completely free and untouched from any man-constructed environment. The sides of Nidelva river are today wild and unused. This project investigates the possibil-
ity of urbanizing the river through single punctual public architectures, capable to connect the suburbs of the city to the goods that the river provides to men, keeping at the same time in mind that the very natural character of the green corridor of the river banks should not be distorted. The design of this library starts with urban strategy that could ease people in reaching it. The library we designed is both a place for reading and studying and a place where people can gather, relax, have a coffee and enjoy the natural landscape.

POVEGLIA UNIVERSITY ISLAND LAGUNA DI VENEZIA
Poveglia is an abandoned island sorrounded by the waters of the Venetian Lagoon. Inhabitated since IX century, the last dweller left its shores more then 50 years ago. Since a few years venetians are raising the issue of giving a new life to the island and protect it from foreign investors willing to transform it into a luxury resort. The competition was a call for ideas aiming to develop the future of Poveglia as a new university pole, open either to students, venetians and tourists. We were really impressed from the iconic shape of Poveglia: the way its land is
a whole and three islands at the same time. We stressed this double characther and decided to approach it as a surrealist cadavre exquis, a unique body made of three completely different parts. The whole university and dwelling system is in the northernmost of the three islands: a Manica Lunghissima that includes a recreational garden. The middle island is Hortus, a layout of ortogonal walls that reminds of ancient cultivation systems, offering instead a series of occasions for entertainment. Last is the Temple, an auditorium, built on the old defensive octagon, from which it originates its super-iconic shape.
