MAY / 2010
For the competition held by Ance on the redevelopment of abandoned industrial areas, the spatial analysis project started. The lot is located in the former industrial area of Cava de 'Tirreni, north of it, the area that was occupied by Co.Fi.MA, abandoned canning industry. Gone are the tobacco fields of landscape features which are linked the lives of many families. Quarry boasts famous personalities, including that Filangieri enunciated theories of civil economy. The project aims to create an international research center on alternative uses of tobacco, a community around the research center environmentally sustainable principles-based civilian economy and a sister community in another country that can harness the knowledge made available from the research center. It tends to create a node that can operate from residential fly-in residential and commercial investment to convert most of the areas facing the state in a decade. And Lot 'was cut by a south east-west link to access the basement parking.

It 'was chosen to cover the entire area with a green surface. The orography of the town of Cava that from this derives part of its name, and 'suggestion was to give the green surface the typical conformation downstream, creating assonance formal perception at different scales.

This project arises from reflection on the concept of contextualization, is to exaggerate the feeling of disorientation, of multiplicity of spaces, bringing the viewer hotel to a loss of cultural references and formal in order to steer. He wants to give tourists the chance to enter a space sum of more spaces, a place that refers to a collective imagination of the city and with a European atmosphere. It 'seemed natural to take as a reference squares and avenues of the main European capitals. Formal elements that characterize urban spaces on which focused attention are the places and the scenes of the latter. The functions of accommodation facilities, lobby, reception, bar, meeting room, breakfast room, are shaped by a plate on the ground floor spaces through drawing cuts for the performance of these functions. The plate becomes a square: the space expands, offers visual, opens in social life, hosting events. Even in the height differences, this item proposes an articulation of its open spaces, with sloping surfaces that serve as seats that offer the screening of audiovisual documents, or which become available at different levels. The element plate occupies more

than half the ground floor to free your windows giving the broader public area of the hotel. The surface unfolds right in front of the rooms conforming to the input area for hotel guests, guiding them intuitively. The morphology and compactness of the fifth material of the buildings which remain on the squares suggested research performed to design the rooms. Different is the interior of the rooms, that choice is connected to the concept of displacement, giving a character aseptic technology from spacecraft.

JANUARY / 2010 The Municipality of Nocera Superiore EQF will join the project promotes actions aimed at curbing the spread of the student population by identifying the school buildings that have shown a loss of students. Degradation gives the idea of architectural space to stay away from suffering and not growing. The project idea is to create areas for outdoor sports, for socialization and implementation of training and race routes that become the new roof on the existing pitch of the game. The coverage area will connect with the ramps to the journeys made on the ground. Each facade is covered with perforated plates that would make images of prominent figures of the Italian and international culture and studied in the three years of middle school. The school covers an area of 13,584 square meters which is located a "Main Building" for teaching and a gym. The main building has an H-shape is on two levels with a flat roof. The plan of the gym is developed along three segments symmetrical central axis with an area of 900 square meters. It’ s roof is flat but with different heights.

The structure is in frames a.c. overnight with masonry infill tuff. Areas will be equipped with seats made of wood or grass exploiting the unevenness of the ground educational panels will be installed and will be subject to possible sensory experiences through various installations. The intertwining paths form coverage paths transparent spaces and equipped. The shape of the coverage follows the trend of the share field and reaches a maximum height of 5 m from the square outside the school. The structure will be steel with the ribs at the inner perimeters of the areolae which give rigidity.

Digital manufacturing processes and software parametric design influence thought and methods of architectural design. Systems CAD / CAM tools can be considered the mass scale of the project. Workshop participants had the opportunity to meet new dynamic design and investigate the possibilities and limitations. The aim of workshop was to provide to those who joined a wealth of techniques, theories and methods for the use of design software parametric and machinery manufacturing digital. The first edition of the workshop is occurred in Italy, near the Coast Amalfi, Cava de 'Tirreni.

project
JUNE / 2009 The idea of participating in the competition Europan 10 Montrux site comes from a strong passion about wine. Montreux is a town in the shoreline of Lake Geneva. An analysis of the history of the place we decided to create a self-contained community. To maintain maximum permeability of our land and enjoy the best view of the lake was a necessary structure without weight and low impact. Identified the structural system we concentrated on the system that Buckminster Fuller tensigrity studied much in the last century. This structure allows to achieve our goal to leave the permeable soil and to be weightless. This system has been used in the famous pavilion Blur Building in Switzerland. The hexagonal shape adopted is deformed symmetrically along one axis in order to achieve a specific angle of 35 째 derived from research on energy flows through the trees. The standards of accommodation choices are made up of three different sizes of the form: 37.5 sqm for 1 person, 75 sqm for 2-3 persons, 112.5 for 4 people. The hexagonal form is used as a knot of vertical and horizontal flows of people. It 'a geometric figure very common in nature: the bees build their nests with this geometry. The structure consists of a central

column with horizontal beams held by a cable system voltage all made of steel. The facade is composed of panels with an external timber. Will be made an exhibition space where they can be represented events mainly related to wine, plus a small library and a conference room for 250 persons. Near the green protected area has been arranged entertainment for children. The main entrance is located near the main road.

The emerging architecture is a discipline that investigates complex systems and complex needs, such as those of living human on this planet and the needs associated with it. It does, however, with the understanding that the needs of man pertains to complex systems within which many disparate factors between them are non-linear dependence. This means that within a complex system does not always correspond to an action or reaction in the same area the same size. Not always a settlement built with the best wishes becomes a place where

human habitation is completed successfully. Indeed, in architecture, and 'under the eyes of all the result of a simplistic approach to complex system. The megastructures, for example, provided all the facilities and adequate living standards have resulted in disastrous social realities. The architecture, understood as "doing" that allows humans to inhabit the planet, 'a complex system in which agents converge economic, social, psychological, technological, philosophical, biological, anthropological, communicative , relational and cognitive. The emerging architecture provides answers to the housing needs of our society, considering the complexity and relationships of the system in which it operates.
