//A //A CCITY ITY W IWITHIN THIN T H ETHE C I T Y /CITY// / EXPANSION THE CI CITTA STUDICAMPUS CAMPUS MILAN EXPANSION OF OF THE T TA STUDI IN IN MILAN MAST ERPL AN

The aim of this project is to propose a new relation between the historic campus of Citta Studi and the new buildings which are being added in order to cover the modern needs. T he site analysis provoked a cr ucial weak ness of the area which is the lack of order and unity between the structures.

SHADOW PLAN

The new block is directly connected with the historic one by an immense square and a waterpath shows the way to its main building, a conference center. The “tower’ a skyscraper in the northeast becomes the landmark, guiding the passengers following the axis of the main road. The structures of the complex are connected through a large pedestrian bridge (10 meters) which is part of the building’s function and role.

The main facades of the buildings are those towards the internal alley.

The skyscraper contains offices and of the three square buildings are serving classrooms and study rooms purposes. The transit i o n f r o m t h e c o n c r e te b r i d g e to t h e s e b u i l d i n g s i s r e a l ised through a light element, the glass box. These are steelframe glass structures which serve circulation and lighiting.

VISUAL REPRESEN TATION

The

campus

mantains

its

significance to be open to the society.

The water element creates a new experience in the urban environment and attracts all ages.

Small fountains are placed in the core of the plaza and the transparency of the water in comparison with the solideness of the concrete results to a sense of balance.

SHADOW PLAN

The block seems hard and mysterious from the external but as someone enters to it discovers movement and flexibility, just like the contemporary metropolis.

//MIRASOLE DAY CARE CENTER OF IN THE RURAL BUILDINGS OF THE

DISABLED CHILDREN// OLD MIRASOLE ABBEY

This project is about the restoration of a rural buildings complex of the Abbey of Mirasole, located in the agricultural area of South Milan, in the Community of Opera. These traditional farmhouses have a significant historic value as they represent one important part of Italian history. In fact, their oldest parts belong to the first half of 18th century, when they were used as warehouses by the monks “Umiliati”, a catholic religious movement. By this time, the played e very high role in the economic activity and the production of the area.

In order to revitalize this area and make it attractive and compelling again for Milan, we based our concept not only in the preservation of the existing parts but in the total transformation of the complex to a functional and appealing unite able to serve modern needs.

The interesting part on this approach is that we found out the several types of decay from which the masonries are suffering and we investigate them according to their material types, and their age and the environmental conditions of the site.

According to the classification of Icomos Glossary, we defined the different deterioration patterns of each of the three facades (A,B,C) and we mapped this patterns in drawings who show in which parts of the buildings are present. An important aspect of our investigation, is that we resulted that in most of the cases multiple deterioration forms are occurring in the same part of the façade, a result of the advanced state of decay they are in.

//A RESIDENTIAL CO-WORKING NEIGHBORHOOD IN AL FARAFRA// A POST WAR RECONSTRUCTION PROPOSAL IN AL FARAFRA DISTRICT

This is an ex- residential area, known as Al Farafra neighborhood, in the center of the city. The area views to the citadel which is its boundary from the south. Thus, the aim of this project is to create structures and spaces able to cover the emerging need of Aleppo people, but also to be enough flexible to reach possible future necessities. The main fact that affected the idea of this proposal is that in the Islamic communities women have very few opportunities to work. This situation is affected by the post war conditions where women are the main labor force. The concept of the projects is based in a new configuration of the building block where in the external side of the block the residential units are designed while in the internal side of the work activities are placed. These work-spaces consist of laboratories are directly connected with the expansion of the market axis. The houses are designed according to different composition of households, and in the south part of the district a collective housing unit is designed to cover the needs of a temporary/transit housing solution.
