INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

The incipit was to design “A Room With a View” paying particular attention to the liaison between interior and exterior and contemplating the contemporary society and its lifestyles. Our society has raised excesses to rules and unless it finds a balance will eventually collapse. We live a totally immersive and pervasive urban life experience: as the native americans live the Amazon forest we live a dense and chaotic reality trying to go back to its pristine status. Hikikomori, Owling, Voguers, Parkourers are excessive lifestyles that do not value urban order or spatial hierarchies, they interpret them freely. This generation is revoking primitive experiences, to keep connection to its deep essence. According to this, the project will proceed following a case by case approach considering that the interior space must be active, albeit amorphous, to make everyone express its excess and find its own habitat, its own heterotopia. Every space is connected to the others, following a logic of suspension, neutralization or inversion of the urban relationship. In an amniotic and formless metropolis, where everything complies to specific quality standards, the possibility to be able to express are within. Assuming that in the future cities will be highly inhabited and ready to welcome individual expansion, personalization and comfort, we must design with no surrender to compromises between the different individualities. The city is the combination of idiosyncratic places: it is not about formal follies, but really human architectures. The project refers to “Room for a Man” (F.Albini, 1936) and “Cabanon” (LeCorbusier, 1951) as its progenitors: it is a small private space for a Parkourer. The Parkour is a new spectacular way of moving which shatters the commonly accepted behavior in public. This implies a new way of conceiving of space, carried out by the new increased physical abilities. As well as Skateboarding or Graffitism, it’s not a vandalic action, it’s more about considering the environment as a challenge and its use as a creative act. Parkour is the sport of the future man, mentally and physically forged by obstacles. The first step of the project is the anthropometric analysis. Starting from the Canon of Policleto, passing through the Vitruvian Man and the Modulor, I studied the proportions and projections of the human body in order to define a new “Modulor-Parkour”, which allows to measure the space. Starting from the static point of view of proportions, I moved on to the cinematic of the “Fundamental Acts” of Parkour, the basic movements of the discipline. Secondly, according to these measures, I proceeded with spatialization: I chose as the starting volume an empty cube 4,79 x 4,79 m, which is meant to be attached by substraction or addiction to an existing building, like a parasite. The room was then developed through variations of this basic cubic scheme, with a white steel structure and deck panels to achieve the maximum flexibility and mobility: the space can get different configurations and can be entirely moved and changed as it is dynamic as its owner. In an active and hybrid space like this the choice of the furniture is set on the characteristics of mobility and ductility. All the objects in the Abacus, are therefore resealable, hangable, foldable or wearable. The lack of vertical ceilings tries to reach the aim of breaking every architectural barrier and increasing the fluidity of the relationship between inside and outside. The final step was the material and tactile definition of the interior represented on 1:20 scale: the chosen surfaces and materials belong to urban, sporty, natural and domestic background. All the elements are prefabricated and available on the market in units, modules or panels, excepted for the graffiti, which is made by measure for the room.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

The project has been developed from the environmental analysis (1:2000 scale) to the architectural detail (1:10 scale), mostly concerning its practicability, as the technical constructive components contribute to the achievement of formal quality. The general theme was the design of a single-family housing type to build with X-LAM wooden system in an assigned extra-urban context. The identified area for the design simulation was located in Sulzano (BS), a site of sailing but also mountain tradition, recently known for the “Floating Piers” installation by Christo. At the starting point the project has evolved through given instructions which have driven the compositional, technological and functional choices. From the overall scale to the detailed design the legislative and environmental limits were significant tools to mold the architecture in a less arbitrary way. Technical Constraints: • The user is a family of (at least) 4 people, chose by the students. • Maximum GFA: 150 sqm. • Maximum Height: 7.50 mt. • Minimum 10 mt. of distance from other buildings, from the boundaries of the lot and from the road. • Porches and lodges: up to 5 sqm of GFA / 100 cubic meters of the residential volume only. • It is forbidden to delete or modify orographical signs, slopes or terracings. • It is forbidden to cut down or damage trees with wide environmental or scientific value (“Pinus pinaster”). It is possible to relocate the olive trees (“Olea europaea”). Every existing tree must be integrated in the design process. • The building must be built on two floors above ground. The vertical perimeter walls cannot develop in continuity, it is instead mandatory to offset the plans in elevation. • The lot must be served by a road that will represent the only pedestrian and driveway access to the house. • The panoramic position and the relationship with the trees and the landscape is fundamental to the project. • The project must not involve excavation operations exception made for those strictly necessary for the plant systems or the foundations. The purpose of the project was to create an architecture that could somehow rocket the sense of immersion inside the nature. Starting from the environmental analysis, the building reached its final conformation through the technical restrictions and the adaption of the characteristics of every member of the client family. All along the process great attention was paid to the use of trees: as architectural devices, sunshade or wind-screen, or cultivated in a garden. As the X-lam technology it’s not common in Italy, every stratigraphy has been studied in a very detailed way being aware that this construction system is really beneficial for reaching certain standards of quality and sustainability. This construction dry system is made up to be really easy and fast to build. The building has been drawn till the 1:20 scale, but it’s the 1:10 scale model that really allowed us to acknowledge the technical and architectural quality of the villa as well as its constructability.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

Among the degraded areas of “Re-forming Milan”, the chosen one is located in a neuralgic place: it’s in the city centre, close to the Duomo and the commercial via Torino. The debate on the site opened with the 1930 Master Plan, which suggested to build a huge vehicular axis at south of the lot. The project by architect Piero Portaluppi was developed according to this plan and its aim was to reconstitute the urban unity through two muscular volumes. To this day only the northern building has been actually raised and it’s now a police headquarter while the second U-shaped building has never been constructed. Meanwhile the site has become a parking lot that represents a strong discontinuity in the historical urban grid, in terms of functionality and shape. The first step of the design was to recompose the urban heterogeneity from a practical and social point of view: the intervention would have to accomodate offices, social and student housings, exhibition spaces, shops and an underground car park. It was necessary to morphologically and technically incorporate the new buildings with the surroundings according to the material and chromatic aspects of the context: the architectural language should be contemporary yet linked to milanese tradition. The project began with the urban study of the city of Milan taking into consideration the historical center and its systems of courts and streets. Some relevant urban qualities have been highlighted at this stage: footprints, directions, alignments, calibres, distances, volumes, heights, and the relevance of historic buildings. We used this language and these tools to craft a first volumetric draft of the architecture. In such an historical context the building’s morphological coherence and the structural project must anticipate the functional definition of the spaces. The structure has been expressed through a grid of proven practicability of the intervention. Later on the calculations, the structural verification and the sizing of the structural elements were carried out on the basis of the loads and the functions of the different spaces. To this point we used the 1: 2000, 1: 1000 and 1: 500 scales. The second step was the spatialization of the functions: it took place with particular attention to the structure and absolute respect of the constraints imposed by the legislation in force and it allowed to define the final shape of the building. The rules were respected in terms of heights and distances, safety exits, staircases, fire and sanitation regulations, parking lots, etc. The architecture was finally expressed through plans, elevations and sections in the 1: 200, 1: 100 and 1:50 scales. In the end the technological check through the drawing of a detail in 1:20 scale proved the architectural quality of the entire project as much as its feasibility and its congruence with the themes of environmental comfort and sustainability.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

Acknowledging the spatial and temporal traits of the Metropolis, the metropolitan project must start from an historical and geographical mapping dealing simultaneously with the large as well as the small scale. On the large scale, urban disciplines get a broader meaning by integrating the landscape as an element of the composition, while an “intermediate scale” emerges between the building and the city. Urban metabolism was the key theme of this project, whose aim was to explore, through the lens of public spaces and collective habits, the relational aspects of urban and metropolitan landscapes. These are often referred as overlapping, mixing and hybridizing relationships such as transport infrastructure, ecological networks and hydrological systems. We tried to promote the resilience of the place and to guide the transition processes and the urban growth by reimagining the social and spatial relationships of public spaces. We imagined new urban morphologies and typologies of buildings while rethinking the infrastructures, the natural ecosystems and the urban ecologies in a post-industrial environments. Red Hook has changed over the years without losing its identity: abandoned in the last 50 years, it now lives a slow rebirth. Located just 15 minutes from the financial district of Manhattan, Red Hook it’s not a place for commuters, it’s a quiet suburb, from which Manhattan can be seen but not heard. It can be seen almost as an island because of its inaccessibility: bounded by the sea on three sides and the highway on the fourth. Characterized by decades of decay and poverty, Red Hook is still largely the rude industrial district it was - the typical places are distilleries and chocolate factories - but with a great view of the Bay and the Manhattan Skyline. The Port has left an architectural heritage of bricks and concrete, cranes for containers, parking lots, pollution and few trees. Despite the hardships created by the Hurricane Katrina, the opportunities for the reconversion of the area are plentiful. Some premises for recovery are already there: the Ikea, the Erie Basin seafront and the Fairway Market, a converted former warehouse. From our analysis it emerged how Red Hook has today the chance to complete its evolution, firstly by creating spaces and infrastructures for green areas, culture, sport etc., secondly by planning the city it will be in a long term future. The outcome of the project is a huge-circular-city-above-water, which is able to manage the flooding and adapt to it. It’s an absolute city that intends to solve the urban contradictions with a gigantic unique architectural gesture. The outlines between the city and the infrastructure are here shaded as the two are braided in a new hybrid colossus. It could be the prelude of a brand new settlement. It’s impossible to deny the iconic and spectacular intentions in a place somebody called “delirious New York”.

«The destructive character knows only one watchword: make room. And only one activity: clearing away. [...] The destructive character is young and cheerful. For destroying rejuvenate, because it clears away the traces of our own age; it cheers, because everything cleared away means to the destroyer a complete reduction, indeed a rooting out, out of his own condition […] This is the great bond embracing and unifying all that exists. It is a sight that affords the destructive character a spectacle of deepest harmony. The destructive character is always blithely at work. It is Nature that dictates his tempo, indirectly at least, for he must forestall her. Otherwise she will take over the destruction herself. The destructive character […] has few needs, and the least of them is to know what will replace what has been destroyed. […] Some people pass things down to posterity, by making them untouchable and thus conserving them; others pass on situations, by making them practicable and thus liquidating them. The latter are called the destructive. The destructive character has the consciousness of historical man, whose deepest emotion is an insuperable mistrust of the course of things and a readiness at all times to recognize that everything can go wrong. Therefore, the destructive character is reliability itself. The destructive character sees nothing permanent. But for this very reason he sees ways everywhere. Where others encounter walls or mountains, there, too, he sees a way. But because he sees a way everywhere, he has to clear things from it everywhere. Not always by brute force; sometimes by the most refined […] No moment can know what the next will bring. What exists he reduces to rubble – not for the sake of rubble, but for that of the way leading through it...». (Walter Benjamin, 1931)
