The new Accenture Headquarter is located in a historic building designed by Luigi Moretti in 1962 in Rome. Our design approach is to preserve the volume of the main building and insert Minimal and Hitech elements to modenize the internal spaces. The proposal is to join the needs of an modern consulting company ( innovation, networking, flexibility, eco sustainablity, wellness of the workers) and the purity of the Rationalistic architecture. Sisal is the Italian leader company specialized in lottery and sports betting. So “play behind the Scenes� becomes our keyword. The Scene is the connection element between playing games and the games who becomes true, taking hope through italian people. They are also rapresents , in smaller scale, the urban transformations of the sorrounding Garibaldi area.

The project is located in a new office building complex in Assago Milanofiori. The project area is 2346 sqm and the space requirement is to improve current employee workplace from 60 to 72 with a new layout solution that can improve the quality of the workspace. Our proposal is to create 2 public spaces called “Square� linked between them by a internal street where hybrid spaces with domestical feeling, conference room, informal meeting room, support room ecc are included. The two Squares, instead, are dedicaded for public relaxing areas. They are differentiated for their functions and aggregation level. The bigger one includes a Kitchen and a relax area with recreational activities. the Smaller one is dedicated to more quiet cunctions like library. The office spaces are differentiated in order to their interactive level and their greater or lesser degree of privacy.

The site area is located in the South of the Balinese island in Kuta Selatan. Strictly connected to the New Kuta Golf on the western coast, the site area is placed in one of the less urbanized areas of the island, however, also for this reason, it is one of the most exclusive areas in Bali. Preservation is the key word. The proposed solution aims to integrate the masterplan to the existing landscape through the intensive use of terrace villas with extensive green roof and intensive green roofs and facades for Hotel and Condotel buildings.

Jingzhou lays in the south of the centre of Hubei Province and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and is an ancient cultural city with a long history of more than two thousand years. The municipality of Jingzhou announced that by 2020 the Historical city will decrease its population from 110000 to 40000. Our proposal is to convert the actual historical center into a sustainable touristic city. It is important to create integrated urban structures, with a mixture of functions, as used to be in the past, when functions were still concentrated, so as to enable maximum use of spaces and keep the necessary moving around, all on the human scale. SLOW ARCHITECTURE & CITY APPROACH Small scale of aggregative places such as square, sidewalks cafes, mom- and –pop stores should be preserved, to provide venues for social interaction; Slow water-city-park: integration in the nature and slow morphology (small scale); Designed frame work: identity of the urban spaces. LOW-RISE DEVELOPMENT To contrast the spread of the cities, solutions must allow for reduction in the use of territory, focusing on the design of acceptable densities; “Eco-Density” for reinforce the social and creative dimensions of the place; To promote “soft” development. Town Houses, Detached Houses, Commercial, Leisure, Educational and Conference buildings up to 4 Storey

The Site area faces a big road, the Masterplan intent is to establish a connection toward this big commercial artery and the internal green area. By the creation of a building curtain all around the perimeter we want to leave most of the space to the green area to give to the resident a social livable area. The access is designed by breaking the block in two of its corners, creating diagonal space tension. The entrance to the apartments passes through this intermediate space, activating it and generating the necessary neighborhood relationship. We want the building to match the environment, voids and cuttings which allow the view of the external landscape in the empty spaces between the buildings, enabling the sun and the air to enter the inner space at the same time. Opening the block is another of our priorities, and we manage to avoid turning the interior space into a forgotten back area, making it the center of the social meeting of its inhabitants as well as a place worth seeing.

Trough the years the original building has been changed many times by different type of maintenance work and now its original shape is completely hidden. Our proposal is to purify the later addictions and give it a new skin in harmony with the original building and the surrounding environment. The restyling of the facade must respect the functions of the existing spaces and optimize the time and the costs of the work. The intervention has to be minimal and rationalist, but in the same time it has to be also comfortable and appealing.

Thang Shan (China) Urban Design / with Protech Engineering
The project is located in a new urban area in the southwest of Thangshan, interested by a great regeneration plan in order to build a new urban community in the cost area. It’s a new social housing project on an area previously planned by the local development plan, which provided us some basely information about the size and the building volume. First of all we impose these data as constrains, in order to give an shape and a dimension to the project. Than we choose the north-south axis of the existing campaign as our main lay by tracking a grid with the blocks size according to the index of the local development plan. We have chosen 2 types of residential building: a low rise court typology (4 floors) distributed in the north of the lot, in order to create a recognizable urban texture and paths; and an hight rise tower typology (49m, within the limits of the maximum allowed) which become strong landmarks for the lot. All the residential buildings has a commercial colonnade on the ground floor.

My Idea of the wooden house of the future is a place where the inhabitant can feel a sense of familiarity. It also has to be comfortable, efficient and it has to respect the environment just like any others members of the family. The sense of familiarity is suggested by the classic shape of the roof: a big pitched roof which can protect the family. The roof is sustituted by a green roof which is the innovative element of the house. As well as ensure a better thermical performance, the green roof rapresents the part of the ground occupied by the house give back to the nature. With the modular repetition of the basic elements we can create new places where people can live and admire the nature from a new point of view.

This rendering work is aimed to represent the design of the new Village of the Child in Chieti through a series of view that represent, with the help of 3DSMax and photo editing, the effect of the project on the surrounding natural context and using local material (tuff) obtained from the nearby hills. After doing the modeling of the terrain, the architectural elements and the street furniture, photographic materials were applied on the model in order to obtain a perfect chromatic match with the surrounding environment.

This academic project, inside the Building System Workshop, requires the elaboration of an architecture proposal that takes in account the composition, the functional and urban aspects, and then developing the structural and the technical details in the second phase. The project area is located in a unused neighborhood next to via San Faustino. The lot, defined in the west by the eastern railway belt of Milan; in the north and in the south by 2 nursing-homes, represents a great opportunity to transform an isolated and mono functional area in a new centrality of the city. The proposal is to realize a new housing estate for residents and students (taken the advantage of the closeness to the university) with commercial functions. In order to connect the area to the other side of the railway belt we created a new underground road that crosses the railway barrier and links via San Faustino and via Gaetano Strambio. The apartments are composed by two linear building that follow the main axial road and two buildings that follow the direction of the new underground road. The northerner group of buildings are student dormitory and they are linked together by a slab that hosts commercial activities. The upper part of the slab is accessible by the ramp/ roof of the gymnasium of the student dorms estate.

Walking the streets of Milan we are always accustomed to see the city as a group of heterogeneous buildings. From historical buildings to modern buildings, from religious buildings to residential buildings, from skyscrapers to Eighteenth-century buildings, our perception of them is constantly affected by their size and the fact that we walk beneath them. But if we climb some floors up on a public building, we could be surprised to see a completely different city. Here, among pitched roofs, dormers, French roofs, temporally roofs and concrete floors, we realize how many buildings in the city, under the roofing point of view, are untreated and not following any rules. The goal is to understand more deeply what is append to this “parallel” city. And, although it is almost a “lost city”, we believe it could be an opportunity to give new life to Milan.

Our proposal is the research about “the uncertain landscape�, that is spaces without a characterization, an well defined function and a shape. The uncertain landscape we studied in this project is the spanish bastion of Milan. Built in the XVI century as defensive walls the Spanish bastion is partially destroyed and transformed, in the present-day, into residential lots regardless of his huge historical and cultural importance. The idea is to reconnect the remaining bastion walls into a system by the creation of a green belt around the city. The green belt is composed by pioneers vegetation in order to preserve the natural biodiversity of the area. In the second moment flagstones will be laid down on this green system in order to create paths for pedestrians and cyclists. Where the Bastion is still not destroyed the stone path will create squares around them, maintaining at a respect distance. In the night, appropriate lights located around the fragment of walls will illuminate them in order to show their importance.

The aim of the project is to make a plastic model of a portion of Sacromonte di Varallo, with surveys and historical researches, in order to rapresent the volumetric relationship between the buildings and the open spaces. The first part of the survey work is to analyze the historical maps of the Sacromonte found at Varallo Municipal Archive and in the local library. Then, with the help of the treatises on architecture of that period and photographic and geometric survey we made an accurate reconstruction in CAD necessary to build the plastic model. The plastic model is realized with monochromatic vegetable cardboard in order to express more clearly the volume of the buildings.

The aim of the project is to design a public market on the bank of the Darsena, to define the lost façade of Antonio Cantore Square and to create a new centrality to the west bank of the Darsena. The design phase is initially supported by a research of all the market typology in the world. Some sample of ancient architecture like Greek Stoas and Roman stores became capital for the project. The Market, that follows the Eighteenth century’s urban weave, is composed by 2 buildings: a linear building with 2 floors for the stores and a multifunctional hall for cultural activities and for restaurant, connected together by covered bridges. The linear building is composed by a large glass wall overlooking the Darsena with a central gallery that become a covered street along the river. The hall is surmounted by a rectangular roof that covers part of Darsena and a Glass structure that follows the bank of the river.
