MILANO PHENOTYPES

1. Atrium connection and study space

2. Water piazza main entrance and relaxing area

3. Playground private space for the residence

4. Study space collective space for students

This project was developed in collaboration with 7 other students of Politecnico di Milano. The brief looks into the development or a residential scheme comprised of two buildings, one being an apartment block for young professionals and new families with some public functions hosted on the ground floor, and the other one hosting a student residence with various facilities for students’ comfort with an addition of a cafe for neighborhood use. The concept is based on the idea of re-imagining a typical Milano housing block by dismantling the rigidity of the shape through integration of nature to distinguish between public and private spaces.

CONTEMPORARY REINTERPRETATION

LA ROCCA is a Masters Thesis project developed in collaboration with one other student of Poliectnico di Milano in 2019. The project’s main aim is to explore architecture in a respectful continuous dialogue between the past, the present and the future using a Castle in a small Tuscan town of Ripafratta as a case. The team adopted an approach in which the urban, architectural and detailed levels were developed simultaneously, achieving comprehensive results. Due to the spread character of the site, the project is conceived in parts according to the elements forming the complex - the Castle itself, Niccolai Tower and Centino Tower. La Rocca displays fragmented yet associated volumes creating a journey, expanding from the center of Ripafratta till Centino tower.

AURORA PAVILION Project location

The site is located in Iceland, inside the magnetic field of the Aurora Borealis. The pavilion is ideally situated on the hiking trail to the Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall being open to visitors and hikers and offering magnificent views.

The best condition for Aurora observaton involves clear sky, darkness and the Aurora activity itself.

Considerig the location and the presence of Aurora, the design concept is focused on defining the use of the pavilion as a place for viewing the Aurora, as well as its integration into the landscape and the generation of a fluid shape recalling the movement of the Aurora light waves.

01. Location

02. View

03. Connection

04. Fluidity

This project was developed in collaboration with 4 other students of Politecnico di Milano using Rhinoceros and Grasshopper software as a part of attended course. The Aurora Pavilion is born from the idea of giving the tourists of Iceland and the seekers of the Aurora phenomenon a space for viewing the famous northern lights that can be visible during the dark hours for approximately 200 days per year.

Sinoidal unary forces

Shape with anchoring lines applied

Sine wave equation

The Aurora Borealis shape movement consists of bounded sheets with layers modeled as sine waves with certain phase shifts, in which the parameters are the wavelength and amplitude. The starting points for the electron beams come through the discretization of curves.

To recreate digitally this effect and to turn it into something useful for modelling, the Kangaroo plugin for Grasshopper was used to simulate this movement on a simple dimensionally constrained rectangle.

The main agent of this simulation was a unary force component that replicated a sine equation, taking into consideration the desired height for the pavillion as its amplitude.

33

PARAMETRIC DESIGN PROCESS CHANGING OF THE UNARY FORCE-WAVE CENTERPOINT

Single force centerpoint

Two force centerpoints with same “in- Two centerpoints with different intensities each give a smoother, more interesting result tensity” returns a turbulent surface

CHANGING OF ANCHOR LINES HEIGHT (CURVEPULL)

Regular anchor lines all around the shapes leave it floating on-air

Too low anchor lines limit the shape’s height too close to the terrain surface

Smaller anchor lines on the sides, close to terrain, turn supporting conditions more feasible

A too high Z component in the wind vector “inflates” the shape

The desired shape assumes the wind vector found in the region

ACTION OF THE WIND

Wind action creates turbulence on the surface’s edges (no Z consideration)

The process above demonstrates the development of the pavilion from defining the initial surface parameters with the application of sinoidal forces through to the defintion of the pavilion structure parameters, such as the number of beams and the rotation of the structure in respect to the surface shape.

The final process of the design defintion was to generate a pattern for panelization of the structure, which was influenced by analysing the sortest walk for the users through the pavilion acting as a bridge, with more density of the panels along the path and implementation of a gradient with a transparent material to mimic the dissolving Aurora beams in the sky. In addtion to that, a radiation analysis helped to spread the gradient more evenly.

This project was developed in collaboration with 5 other students of Politecnico di Milano. The project was focused on surveying an existig building for a conservation strategy report followed up by a proposal for a redevelopment of the ex-Faini factory area in the city center of Lecco. The proposal was suggesting a revitalization of the area through creating a center for local craftsmanship, as well as a study space for the adjacent local library building in order to reintroduce the area for public use of the Lecco citizens and visitors. To esure preservation of internal spaces, a concept of a ‘BOX WITHIN A BOX’ was implemented to provide necessary spaces accomodating new functions.
