ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO | SARA ALTAMORE

Sara Altamore Urban planner | architectural engineer I am an engeneer and urban planner with a strong background. I am living in Milan. I studied and worked in Catania (M.D. and M.Sc.), Barcelona, Bilbao, Venice (PhD) and Milan. I am a PhD student in regional planning and public policies at IUAV. I am a curious and self-started person with a passion in research and learning. *** I am interested in the understanding of contemporary urban processes. I think that the design of cities should consider the transversality of urban policies in the contemporary complex and heterogeneous urban societies. I believe in the need for the adoption of a cross-cutting approach to urban policies analysis and a researchled approach is crucial to develop a innovative and sustainable project.

The mission of PARK(ing) Day is to call attention to the need for more urban open space, to generate critical debate around how public space is created and allocated, and to improve the quality of urban human habitat • at least until the meter runs out!

Water is essential for human life and our planet. What do we really know about it? Caldes de Montbui is a town closely associated with thermal water, and we used to make a proposal to put a participatory test over the water to enrich the culture that we have on it. Our proposal consisted of hanging colorful canvases that had written sayings and data about water. These statements, however, were not whole and visitors had to complete them. The canvases were placed in different places of the town so that people could pick up, and made a tour of all those urban areas.

The workshop “Building a city for everyone” included in the CCCB Culturnautes summer camp, is a trip to the galaxy of contemporary culture. This workshop will pose a series of questions about the public spaces that work over four sessions: Which environments define the public spaces of our city? Who lives these spaces? How do we use them? Can we give a new different use? We propose, first, to explore the various public spaces around the CCCB, analyze and compare them. Then, with the knowledge acquired and from given conditions, designing a city.

Piazza Lupo is located on the city center of Catania. It is a degraded place currently used by organizations working in the social. The goal is to recover the existing building with minimal interventions and quick selfconstruction. An analysis of the local needs led to the design of a multifunction area and coworking, able to be flexible to adapt to the various needs. There is a library, a common kitchen, FabLab, etc.

RIDISEGNO MOBILITÁ Nel comparto urbano di progetto, un nuovo schema veicolare promuove percorsi più agevoli e lineari per la mobilità dolce, al tempo stesso resi più articolati per auto e moto. Entro il perimetro della piazza solo tram, ATM, taxi e biciclette possono transitare, riconsegnado la piazza al suo vero fruitore: il pedone. Si tratta quindi di innescare una successione di dicotomie pieno – vuoto, dinamico – statico, dentro-fuori al fine di valorizzare le qualità attuali della piazza.

Una nuova rete ciclabile connette i punti focali (duomo, navigli, castello sforzesco) all’area di progetto, per servire la fruizione ciclopedonale dell’intero centro storico. Onde ridurre il traffico veicolare nella suddetta area, si è potenziato il già esistente Bike-Sharing, affiancandogli un nuovo servizio: il Bike Exchancing. Chiunque parcheggi moto o auto entro l’area, potrà “scambiarla” gratuitamente (o a tariffe tali da renderla conveniente) con una bici in condivisione. Tutto ciò sfruttando un’apposita app tramite QR-Code. I “parcheggi” sono stati ripensati, mantendo in parte quelli esistenti, liberando così la piazza dai veicoli. Il servizio sarà integrato grazie a dispositivi che fungeranno anche da elemento d’arredo nella piazza e nel suo intorno. ZONE PREDISPOSTE AL BIKE SHARING/EXCHANGING TRAMITE QRCODE ZONE DESTINATE A PARCHEGGIO PERCORSO CICLABILE IN SEDE PROPRIA PERCORSO CICLABILE IN SEDE MISTA RAGGIO D’AZIONE PER IL RAGGIUNGIMENTO A PIEDI DELLA PIAZZA IN 5 MINUTI

ATTRARRE L’obiettivo principale è valorizzare il carattere di polo amministrativo, culturale e turistico della piazza rendendola effettivamente lo snodo delle molte polarità attorno ad essa dislocate. Per perseguire tale scopo si è scelto di effettuare una serie di interventi a varie scale. Il primo è stato studiare un elemento polivalente che dalla piazza si diffonde “fuori” con densità sempre inferiore onde incuriosire e richiamaree verso la piazza. Questo una volta servirà ervirà come com illuminazione, altre come dissuasore, colonna per il bike exchanging-parcheggio e filodiffusione. Altro elemento di richiamo alla piazza è infatti il suono. Una musica leggera viene riprodotta aumentando di intensità (ma restando sempre tenue) avvicinandosi al teatro.

RICUCIRE Per rendere la piazza un unicum percettivo e fruitivo si è scelto di uniformare la quota e cambiare la pavimentazione estendendola fino a largo Mattioli e Piazza San Fedele. Togliendo i semafori, tutelando la mobilità dolce la piazza torna ad essere spazio pubblico di confronto e di scambio, pensata per l’uomo e non per la macchina. Viene mantenuta, in quanto segno storico, la pavimentazione originaria tra i binari del tram di fronte al teatro, superata dalla prosecuzione materica su Largo Ghirindelli e oltre. Il materiale così diviene ponte visivo verso il teatro che torna ad essere quinta in primo piano della piazza.

RICORDARE Oggi la statua risulta nascosta per via degli elementi che la circondano. L’idea progettuale vuole valorizzare la memoria storica della piazza dando risalto alla statua con un intervento “orizzontale”, che libera il suo l’intorno restituendola all’occhio del fruitore. Inoltre tramite il segno della diagonale, che ricorda il concorso ottocentesco per la sua collocazione, si ripristina la statua quale protagonista del palcoscenico che è la piazza. Gli elementi essenziali del progetto diventano la linea e il punto che, spogliati da superflui ornamenti, riconquistano la scena.

The project idea was born from the intention to create an independent body. The system is defined by an element that is at the sametime the border, path, and skeleton. The meterial of the spiral path is treated wood, studied independent boards to be easy maintenance and assembly. The spiral path acts as an ordering element of the successive phases of construction. The request for temporalisation intervention and immediate accessibility of the same has suggested two phases of life, of which the first is for art exhibitions. In addition was provided the future placement of a crematorium.

(E)COABITARE GRADUATION THESIS

2013 Catania, Sicily, Italy Prof. S. Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Urso

The main objective of this work is to develope a design model of a solar collector. These are traditionally applied on roofs of low buildings to cover the domestichot water and heating demand. Nevertheless, roof surface is not alweys sufficient to satisfy such demands. In this study an innovative sistem of solar thermal facade has been designd for the application on new appartments in order to satisfy the energy needs for winter heating and summer cooling. The appartments are placed in Sicily, a region which may be considered rappresentative of mild Mediterranean climete.

According to the modern needs of living, I also decided to allocate appartments in cohousing. A cohousing community is a type of intentional community composed of private homes supplemented by shared facilities.

Cohousing facilitates interaction among neighboors for social and practical benefits, economic and environmental benefits.

The proposed system consists of evacuated tube solar collector assembled on modular panels, designed to reduce the overall costs. The aesthetic istances have been properly considerated, taking care of both the design and the composition of the panels on the facade. Depending on specific requirements, each panel can be flexibly equipped with optional accessories, such as insulation layer, sun tracking mirror, maintenance and cleaning devices.
