Luca who?
Luca Morosetti | 8th August 1990, Trieste | Italian Delft University of Technology | MSc Architecture | Heritage & Architecture University of Trieste | BSc Architecture Sciences
Biography My name is Luca Morosetti and I am an Italian MSc Architect. During the past years I studied, worked and lived abroad in different countries, in order to learn from different points of view and to build myself an international profile. I am passionate in the complexity of small tailored architecture and in the organization of big architectural organisms. I have also developed a great interest in BIM process in architecture and I am an Autodesk Revit certified professional. During my youth I have been an former semi-professional Rowing athlete at a national and international level. Because of this now I am tenacious and stubborn. Fond of visual arts, art history, drawing and painting, photography and movies. I also love cooking and eating (mostly). I am a travel enthusiast, curious and eager to learn from anyone having something to share.

TASK: Scientific and academic sound research at the basis of the design process. The research investigates themes of housing, while the design deals with existing monuments. The whole process of “research by design”, as it is promoted by TU Delft, aims at giving practical solutions to theorized issues and topics. The outcome is a theory to design, urban to detail, process. PROJECT: The main concept of the design is to find new solutions for contemporary collective housing by means of using the principles of the monastery as a typology. The main issue that came out in comparing these two different typologies was that, in contrast with the monastery, cohousing never have a true binding element for common life as it was faith.
For this reason, work becomes the new binder. Each dweller, or “contemporary monk”, is the promoter of a new working activity and shares living spaces (private, shared and common) with other dwellers with the same purpose. The result is a sort of a long-term hostel for young entrepreneurs which decide to share their new experience in a common and vibrant live/work environment.

Working activities The building’s program is structured so that it can offer both a working and a living experience. Working activities are placed on the two lower floors so that a direct interaction with the public is possible. On the ground floor the working activities are divided in ateliers and workshops, one for each activity and group. This space can be modified and customized when there is a turnover of activities, accordingly to the needs of each production. On the upper floor an office-like program was chosen, so that also those activities that do not need a direct relationship with the public can take place, like architecture offices, startups and similar.

Living together Dwellings are place on the two upper floors. The dwellings are minimal but are provided with large common areas and shared spaces. The project is developed from the most individual space (the room or studio) and from there it gets more and more public. This is achieved by introducing spaces that are shared by more and more people till areas that are shared by everybody, such as the common terrace and the gym. Both buildings have central common areas which provide the dwellers with areas to gather together and spend time together, this areas being recreational areas, lounge and kitchens, laundry rooms and storage units.

Roberto Cavallo | R.Cavallo@tudelft.nl Maurice Harteveld | M.G.A.D.Harteveld@tudelft.nl Tamara Rogic | trogic@yahoo.com
TASK: The focus of the studio was the re-development of the Hartera (Croatian: paper factory) in Rijeka, Croatia. The area is just outside the city centre of the city on its riverside. The studio tries to create the link between architecture and urbanism students. The aim is to draft urban general urban strategies that eventually lead, for each student, to an architecture project in a different location. The sum of all the interventions forms a broader Masterplan for Rijeka. PROJECT: In a group of three students, we drafted urban strategies following the theme of the sequence of spaces. We believed, in fact, that since the area of Hartera is not directly adjacent to the city centre it was necessary to create the basis for new synergies for a new regeneration to happen. To these purpose we drafted an acupunctural design strategy that enables this very process by triggering a continuous sequence of spaces that, from the inner city, leads to Hartera.
The individual design, on the other hand, tries to address the same theme and trigger the same issues. Urban Block is a mixed-program complex with main focus on dwellings. The project tries to blend in with its surroundings both from a functional and aesthetic point of view. As a result, the intervention tries to create a nuanced fading architectural language that leads the citizen from the inner city to the soon-to-be re-developed area of Hartera.

The concept of urban acupuncture is prototyped in the diagram on the left hand side. By intervening locally, the areas adjacent will, as a consequence gain from this and will spontaneously develop over time. The scheme is then applied on the urban scale in order to develop the whole area leading to Hartera. Luca Morosetti | Portfolio
16
Blend-in with the city blocks The re-evaluation of the Hartera area in Rijeka is as essential as the requalification of the area adjacent to it. Hartera does not touch the city centre and for this reason it is essential to make the path to it inviting as well. For this reason an acupunctural urban intervention was planned from the Seaside, along the river and eventually to the Hartera area. By intervening locally on spots, it is possible on the long term to have the whole area re-evaluated by its citizens. Different programs and areas were pursued by different students. The concept of my design is a mixed-target dwelling program, which also offers some everyday facilities and working activities. The aesthetics of the new courtyard block is inspired by the existing typologies, developed over the centuries in a spotaneous way, fragmented in their appearance.

Volume manipulation
First floor plan. Dwellings are divided in units so that different interior galleries and exterior terraces are created.
The shape of the complex is achieved according to several priciples: open it to the public realm, shift the volumes on the first floor in order to create different levels of privacy, lastly to create some voids on the top floor so that framed views of the city are created.
Exterior elevation of the complex. The different heights and slopes of the roofs, together with the flat and protruding windows give a fragmented exterior character to the architecture. 19

TASK: Design of a dwelling and/or working program in a former cloister that was then turned into a gunpowder storage. Nowadays the buildings are empty and used for storage. The task it to re-design the buildings from the urban level to the architecture and detailed technological level. Great attention must be paid to adaptive re-use issues.
PROJECT: The aim of the project is to keep the introvert character of the complex constituted by several buildings, among which two of them possess relevant historical and architectural values. The two smaller adjacent courtyards host a residential program which varies in size and targets; they range from small studios for students to small apartments for couples and bigger ones for families. The two main buildings which are meant for office spaces, workshops, temporary exhibitions and conferences are located in the bigger courtyard. The work-spaces on the ground floor are laid out in clusters, each one of them
with private offices and a common discussion and relax room. On the upper floor, the former gunpowder storage, the circulation goes through an enfilade of wooden trusses that give a unique spatial atmosphere and distributes into the offices in one building and through an exhibition space in the other one. The main idea of the project though, is to preserve the outer face of the complex by intervening on the interior with the addition of a contemporary arcade-like structure, thus reflecting the ancient typology of the nunneries. The arcade binds the courtyard together and connects the buildings with each other.
20
Concept
After analysing the typology of the courtyard, it was clear that the portico was a recurring element. With this idea on the back of my mind I decided to develop a contemporary portico which preserves the character of the place and introduced a binding element for the whole complex of buildings. As a consequence, routing becomes an essential theme of the intervention. Old Dutch wooden trusses are what expresses the essence of the existing buildings the most and create a unique enfilade of elements. For this reason the same idea was then applied to the new intervention in order to create the same atmosphere with a new identity.

UN | Noticed RE-Thinking competitions | Competition | Luca Morosetti, Giulia Dentice Sept 2017 | Pamukkale, Turkey Honorable Mention
TASK: The task for the competition was to design a visitor centre and observatory facility for the Unesco heritage site of Pamukkale, an incredible landscabe of natural pools in a sloping lime-based soil. The intervention had to take into account the relationship between architecture and lanscape.
PROJECT: Un|Noticed is based on the principle of intervening by making a strong architectural statement which respects the qualities of the landscape and takes them over as design tools. The leading concept is to create a new panoramic route which guides you through the natural pools of Pamukkale in a breathtaking journey. It will connect the existing path in a closed
loop which will ultimately lead the visitor to the main architectural intervention, a visitor centre and a panoramic viewpoint inspired by the pools in volume and materiality. The intention to dialogue with the territory as much as possible lead to the decision of letting nature set the rules of the game that architecture will follow adapting to them.
26
Connecting with a loop From a landscape and urban point of view, it was decided to implement the existing sloping path. The intervention closes the latter is in a looped path which encircles the natural pool, thus guiding the visitor through a whole experience. The new pathway is composed by a continuous hovering platform which lands gently on the surface whenever it is necessary in order to access the terraced pools areas. Moreover, along this pathway several miradores are positioned in strategic spots in order to frame the landscape in views which are changing along the journey. The intervention still preserves and encourages free hiking around the area but wants to offer the visitor guidance in discovering an outstanding natural wonder.

The visitor centre The visitor centre is designed to be a turning point along every visitor’s promenade and to stand out as a landmark inspired by the beauties of the site it sits on. It is composed by three main volumes adapting to the terrain, each containing a different functional area: the main reception with a shop and a cafÊ, the auditorium, and a workshop and activities zone. The functional program is site specific and yet open and flexible. From a volumetric point of view the intervention clearly follows the archetype of the surrounding nature as each roof becomes accessible by the public with its own pool-like water surface. As the main character is still meant to be the nature, the materials are kept neutral and rough with the intention of fading out of sight from a distance.

Arno de Vries | A.H.deVries@tudelft.nl
TASK: The theme of the Lecture Series was the Re-Design of an existing building on the basis of the climatic and structural issues that the current state faces. The students need to re-think the project from scratch with the main aim at solving the current climatic issues. The outcome is to have main concepts for each field of expertise (climate, installations, structure, construction) and develop the details for the facade of the new design. PROJECT: The chosen building is the NAI (Nederlands Architectuur Instituut) in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Designed by Jo Coenen in 1993, the building has a strong compositional character but critical climatic problems such as overheating and lack of natural ventilation. After analysis the current state of the building, we were asked to find reference projects to strengthen our ideas. As a result, we decided to rotate the building and to add a second tilted facade. The latter does not act as a
double-skin facade but more like an actual envelope as its interior create a space that can be used for circulation. The main concept is that the facade can slide open, so that in summertime natural ventilation can be performed by means of chimney effect. In winter, on the other hand, the facade stays closed off and by means of greenhouse effect, creates an induced interior upwards natural ventilation that, together with technical installations, creates an extremely sustainable solution.
30
The re-design of the structural system is constituted by a steel beam-column system with wooden secondary beams. The exterior steel trusses are hinged to the ground and to the main building.
The Envelope facade
The exterior facade acts as an envelope for the interior one. It is not a simple doubleskin facade as it creates an actual living environment with galleries and circulation. It acts as a climatic mitigator. By taking advantage of the climate of the environment and its windy character an operable system was developed. The entire facade can be slid vertically, so that wind can be driven into the building during the warm season.

TASK: Research of architectural themes together with a urban design as outcome. Great attention was given to the research part as backbone of the later design. This was aimed to a thorough understanding of social synergies and processes. The urban planning and design aims, on the contrary, in influencing and driving these relationships, in order to heal some of the social issues of the city. PROJECT: The first approach was analysing the territory of Gorizia (Italy) and Nova Gorica (Slovenia) focusing on the border areas that divide them. I pictured them as a single “divided city” and for this reason I decided to make further research, looking into both technical and social aspects. The research’s aim was to understand the issue of divided cities in modern society, and if the two cities of my study case could be “healed” by transforming the border areas into a linear park. For this purpose, several examples of existing cases, for both divided cities and linear parks, have been provided and later
codified. This work of research resulted in the design of a linear park developed alongside the border while the aim was to combine the two realities and create a unique, common space. Particular attention has been paid to reinforce infrastructures in order to restore the connections between the people of the two different cities and along the park itself. The result is a public space, a sort of “nobody’s land” belonging to both cities, that tries to figure out unsolved issues of internationality in a EU context after the Schengen Agreement.

The research starting point was to analyse the urban typology of the divided city, that is to say a city literally split in two by a administrative border. It is important to understand if the division is friendly or not, if it can be perceived or not and also if there are social frictions. To get a graps in understanding the urban consequences of this typology, a case study was done and extreme example were analysed. Subsequently, the answers were applied to the main case study, the cities of Gorizia and Nova Gorica, for the ultimate draft of an urban intervention.

While the divided city was a research over the existing issues of the problem statement, the linear park case study was an analysis about possible solutions. The typology of the linear park was studied in order to understand which design tools can be used in order to develop urban strategies to connect the two cities.

TASKS: This is a selection of projects I have collaborated to during my professional experience. They range from bigger public designs to smaller private houses. I had the chance to work both on national and international competitions as well as on commissions to be executed. With OYO I started with simpler tasks such as model making and testing solutions and went later more in depth in the design part. I had the chance to have an active role during the design phase of several competitions. During this internship I was part of an active and dynamic young office that inspired me professionaly and personally. With BCQ I first was part of the design team of a competition for a public library that was awarded 1st prize and won the commission. Later on I was part of a team in charge of finetuning the design of a Four Stars-Hotel near Barcelona. The project was to be realised and we had to deal with clients and suppliers as well as adapting the design to legal requirements and to changing budgets. It was a new experience that taught me a lot about project management and real life/down to earth issues.
