URBAN PLANNING PROJECTS
Social City Operative Plan / Milano, Italy April 2017 La proposta di Piano Attuativo per l’Ambito di Trasformazione prevede una Superficie Territoriale pari a 152.793 mq e la realizzazione di una volumetria complessiva di 73.000 mq, sviluppata su 5-6 piani fuori terra. Le destinazioni previste, ripartite secondo quanto previsto dal vigente PGT prevedono Servizi Pubblici – Campus Universitario, Commercio Medie Strutture, Residenza, Housing Sociale, Servizi privati diffusi. Da questo punto di partenza il piano si struttura e orienta su due assi principali: quello viabilistico di accesso e distribuzione Ovest-Est e quello pedonale Nord-Sud, che collega l’area del Campus con il vicino accesso al passante ferroviario, passando attraverso il parco pubblico. Su questa traccia ordinatrice del percorso pedonale, si concentra e addensa la parte più urbana del progetto, diventandone il vero e proprio centro. Pensato come successione di spazi aperti e chiusi, di piazzette e portici con attività commerciali e servizi al piano terra e residenze ai piani superiori, questo percorso lega e stringe tutte le linee ordinatrici del piano e che da esso si slegano e si aprono, si curvano e si piegano per fare entrare il verde e la luce all’interno degli edifici.

URBAN PLANNING PROJECTS
Commercial District Operative Plan / Milano, Italy May 2017 Il progetto del Centro Commerciale Naturale prevede la creazione di un network che coinvolge tutti gli aspetti della vita cittadina. Un sistema come quello del Centro Commerciale Naturale prevede una programmazione economica, ma anche un progetto di riqualificazione urbana e un progetto sociale. Attorno all’attività dei negozi e alla vita del Vecchio Centro si sviluppa un’economia sostenibile basata sui cittadini, sulle loro storie e sulle loro esigenze. L’Amministrazione Comunale intende mettere in campo uno strumento programmatico ed operativo che consenta, in parallelo alla costruzione della nuova variante al Piano di Governo del Territorio, di identificare azioni mirate che possano portare alla creazione del Centro commerciale Naturale come un sistema dotato di identità e funzionalità. Lo strumento del PIANO OPERATIVO è pertanto un insieme di azioni e progetti che non si limitano alla pianificazione del territorio, ma integra al suo interno una serie approfondita di analisi, valutazioni progetti e politiche che intervengono in contemporanea su di una molteplicità di temi riferiti al GOVERNO DEL TERRITORIO. E’ uno strumento trasversale che si attua attraverso una molteplicità di possibiità e regole che l’Amministrazione Comunale intende promuovere con il supporto di professionisti, associazioni, commercianti e abitanti.

Coastal Hub Development Project / Italy May 2017 Coastal City Hub is a feasibility study for a transformation project of an area, occupied by an old and dismissed productive center, facing the sea in a strategic position. The project involves various actors and functions, such as residential, commercial and hospitality, but also some public functions, such as a new train station and a school campus. The aim of the project is to develop a real estate operation which can give back the area to the old town and open the seaside promenade to the public. Together with the masterplan and architectural project, a feasibility study has been done. Expenses, revenues and cash flow has been developed according to analysis results, land regulations and project data. Some charts are shown as examples of the calculations and evaluations done, please note that the numbers are just a suggestion.

Oasis Residences / Cairo July 2015
Oasis Residential Compound is a 300.000 m2 residential neighbourhood project in the new development area of 6th October, Cairo, Egypt. The entire project masterplan is based on the idea of permeability, for the enjoyment and feeling of community for the residents. Apartment blocks face semi-private courtyards, and then connect to larger green spaces. This central “oasis park� is immediately visible from the main entrance, and acts as a shared space for the residents and their community. It is the key identity of OASIS, providing many benefits for its users. Aside from the obvious visual amenity and enjoyment of natural surroundings, residents can enjoy public facilities within the central park, such as small retail, cafes, prayer spaces, and recreational facilities.

Turkish airlines pavilion / Atlanta March 2016 THY Pavilion is a pre-concept project for a temporary structure to be installed in May 2016 in Atlanta, Georgia, to inaugurate the opening of a new direct flight route from Istanbul. Inspired by the company’s logo and branding strategy, we have been working of different options in a continuous evolution. Turkish Airlines logo is simple and, at the same time, effective, and immediately gives the feeling of lightness and speed which represents the company. Inspired by this, we worked on a sculptural flying wing made of tensioned fabric, which recalls the logo in color and shape. The wing works both as a canopy and as a projection surface and can be admired from multiple directions, creating different effects: in the middle of the day it will project the logo silhouette on the ground or can be captured by drones from the top. The strict time schedule forced us to choose a scaffold structure, to reduce the time and simplify the construction. In fact the wing is easily hung from a modular 1,5x1,5m scaffold which surrounds it from every side; this structure also supports on the ground level some platforms which are partially covered by the wing and can be used as sitting areas or shelves to distributes gadgets. The scaffold itself can be used in the night for 3D projection light shows. This solution is very sculptural and iconic, understandable even from distance.

Lighting showroom / Istanbul February 2016 Lighting showroom is a renovation project located in the heart of Istanbul, in a neighborhood which is famous for this type of trade. The client is an independent lighting company which sells prestigious brands’ fixtures; their aim is to build a new showroom which will give a unique image to their business. The existing run-down structure is inserted into the city center’s built curtain and borders with an historical building. The dominant and very prestigious position allows an almost 360 degrees view toward the Golden Horn and the historical peninsula. The showroom will have 7 floors, each of them with a construction area of around 40 m²: the first five will be dedicated to showroom, while the last two will be owner’s private house. In this area regulations are very strict and, in order to avoid disputes with the municipality, we designed a clean glass façade which hides a surprise: a complex organic structure which shades the interiors from the sun and, at the same time, creates a perfect exhibitor for lighting fixtures, receiving and reflecting the light on its curves. The shape is a minimal surface and has been modeled in Mathematica and Rhino; it is thought to be realized in fiber concrete.

Pinar Logistic Center / Istanbul April 2015 Yaşar Holding Pınar Logistic Center is located in the Esenyurt district of Istanbul, Turkey, and is designed to be a second-generation logistic centre with a total area of 25.633m2. The Center gathers management, offices, and storage departments under one roof. With an interactive design of these three departments, connection between all can be maintained at all times. The design distributes three main departments, management, offices, and storage, homogenously to each floor, without separating functional differences. Pınar Logistic Centre contains 3 levels of office spaces, separated from warehouse and vehicle zones, with inner courtyards increasing connection between offices and the environment. These courtyards allow natural light into the building and the advantages of a better work environment for employees.

Social Center Competition / Anamur December 2014 Anamur is a city famous for being Turkey’s southernmost point and for its bananas and peanuts production. Anamur municipality held a competition for the design of Social Center on the top of a small hill located between the city center and the mountains. The Social Center project aims to leave free the top and dig in the hill, opening the building to the best view, but, at the same time, shielding it from the sun. The main atrium, secured in the heart of the hill, becomes also a gate which gives access to the park and the city.
