Agri Urban New Wave Mirafiori ecoquarter

IED Sustainable Architecture Master Thesis project urban regeneration, community strategies, smart city Mirafiori quarter, Turin, Italy Michele Salmaso, Rayna Boyadzhieva, Olga Nikonova, Raffaella Campanella
Description The climate debate is actually the main topic on what we base “retrofitting urban spaces” as a must for a responsible way to design the city of the future. But aside from this a general shift of values can be observed in new generation of “urban people”. A change that is intended to reshape not only the community itself, but also the urban structure. Nowadays the quality of life is more determined by health, activity and mobility rather than by material goods and all of this is can be experienced in a compact and wellconnected city. The Agri Urban New Wave represents a new way of living. Project transforms Mirafiori into a new lifestyle place where the community produces its own food and sells it directly from the garden. Crops and shops placed in the unused green areas and unoccupied building spaces create an image of a better living for the present inhabitants and a greater attraction for future ones. From a quarter that is rather forgotten after closing a part of the Fiat factory Mirafiori changes into a brand for a new community that attracts a wide spectrum of eco oriented people and supporters.
The internal circulation in the quarter is based on a main and a secondary pedestrian network and begins form the gates, spreading inside. All networks together build a polyfunctional grid of activities that changes the monotonous and impersonal face of the quarter and improves the life quality in the area. Allotments between the residential structures bring land next to urban city apartment and a rural gardening spaces. Small public space between the buildings, hosting service facilities for the allotments, playgrounds and small public functions, defines the secondary path between the buildings.

Integration between residential and agricultural activities through the definition of new schemes and integrated solutions. Vertical farms, hydroponic cultures, integration of ICT with agriculture. Integration between local vegetable production and small business providing new market area and facilties. Retrofitting of the building integrating residential energy production potential (waste cycle, water cycle, solar energy production) with agricultural process and maintenance.

Description
mind all your allotments
The existing housing in the study area was designed and built between 1965-66 as a living and working system together with the FIAT factories in Mirafiori. Today the social dwellings are mainly owned by users that used to be workers in the Fiat plant. The dwelling are inadequate for contemporary requirements for young generations of dwellers, due to the costs of maintenance are no more sustainable. The public spaces have high unexpressed potential in relations with the particular agricultural mood of the neighborhood that is shown by the informal allotments all around the area. To give new life to the neighborhood we need to take the agricultural vocation of the area and translate it into a ‘agroneighborhood plan’, involving citizens into this mass lifestyle revolution. The model that follow our analysis is the so called agro-housing and urban-farming that following the principles of resilience, sustainability and integration, allow us to design a new social and architectural dress for Mirafiori. Our target is a young generation of people interested in agricultural lifestyle as in experimenting new forms of social integrations.

Description
H4A
The aim of the concept is to create a new meeting point for the natural-art interested people, a place where tourists can meet art workers on site, join them in specific workshops and enjoy natural-art activities. Differents design issues are managed with: retrofit of the main existing building to provide common spaces for the winter activities; extention of the old building providing exhibition hall and workshop rooms; building of an off-grid module, a modular dwelling unit designed for both artists and tourists staying. The space inside can meet different needs (number of occupants vs workshop area) thanks to a sliding system furniture and a modular organization.

Defining the end user of the intervention we designed specific places for the different activities connected with natural art. Several sustainable techniques were taken into account during all the fases of the design process expecially solar energy systems, water collection, biomass heating and geothermal heat pump, dry toilet (module).

Description
New Uprising Brains
Sustainable school in Gaza Strip: application of low tech methods and materials. The challenge of the design is to build a school campus for 1000 children with the minimum amopunt of energy needs. Moreover the build-up timetable permits the running of the facility from the beginning, providing classrooms, offices and services for the first 200 students. Rammed heart and wood are used as main construction material as they’re the best choice both for insulation and costs. A PV panels system is integrated into the roof to provide electric energy. Wetland areas are planned all over the school yards to clean service water. Classrooms are oriented to recive the best light during morning time and east façade are protected by an shading system integrated with the roof that caracterize the shape of the school giving a new clear mark and image for the Um Al Nasser community.

five years architectural engineering master thesis project urban renovation, social strategy, public buildings Favela Vila Fatima, Porto Alegre (RS), Brazil Michele Salmaso, Silvia Ciprian, Roberto Pezzini
Description Master thesis design project named: “Urban renovation in Brazilian informal city. Connective tissue redevelopment of the Favela ‘Vila Fátima’ in Porto Alegre (RS)”. The project was leaded during the six mounth “Excange Student Program”at Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul / PUCRS, Faculty of Architecture, in Porto Alegre. The renovation of the area start from the main road, actually the place where the community plays his role. Here new community buildings are designed as marks for a new born condition. Favelantes are included in the city growing process with a specific community planning, this gives the opportunity to build both adequate buildings and work opportunities for low income peoples.

five years architectural engineering master project thesis social housing, self construction, growing module Favela Vila Fatima, Porto Alegre (RS), Brazil Michele Salmaso
Description Master thesis design project named: “Growing social house for the Favela ‘Vila Fátima’ in Porto Alegre (RS)”. Project developed during the six month “Excange Student Program”at PUCRS and 4 month in Italy at the University of Padua, Faculty of Architectural Engineering. The dwelling module designed has low energy needs and could be used also for off-grid purposes. The modular approach gives the building the possibility to “grow” with the family economic possibilities and evolution, mirroring the actual needs for that people that due to low income situation can’t have long terms plans for the place where they’re living. Building techniques used in the construction permit the owner to build little by little his own house, saving money and learning working skills useful to be contracted by a working company in the future.
