Retrofitting a net-zero dwelling on an existing building

The project is located in campus Leonardo da Vinci, Polytechnic of Milan, It is a retrofitting project aiming sustainability and energy efficiency design. The project is designed for student housing. It is designed on an existing building which has a very simple and cubic form. The existing building has a large study area, a few classes, and a big canteen in the building. It has nine meters of height which will be more feasible and economic to construct on. The idea of student housing will help and benefit students, the existing canteen, and the university in general. Since the building has a simple shape, we give more importance to the general form of the building, and also we tried to virtually connect the building with its surroundings especially to the botanic garden which is located on the south of the building.

TRACE OF HISTORY Msc Interior Design Studio Group work Project Type Conceptual Exhibition Center Professor Averna Marta Year 2018

Renovation of Colonia Montana di Renesso

In the heart of the Liguria region in northwest Italy, there is a small valley named Savignone. At the top of the valley, there is a concrete building called Colony di Renesso. This building is one of the two colonies in the area and was designed as a summer camp for boys to be trained in various physical and cultural practices during the period of fascism (1933).

The building illustrates traces of Italian history such as Italian architecture in the 1930s, the difficult era of world war, etc. These flashbacks about how a country gets reunited and gets back from Darkness to Light are the points we found most important. The design focuses, thus, mainly on this concept.

16

Location : Savignone, Genoa, Italy

The present condition of the building is abandoned without maintenance and since the fascist period, this building has only been used for temporary displays. The building has a unique architectural style and a powerful historical atmosphere that fascinate people. Neither exterior nor the interior is not in very good condition, but there is still the majority of the furniture inside. These characteristics gave us the impression that it could be a museum of its own that could reflect the building as an abstract message that would guide visitors to take a journey through the building’s deepest memories.

17

Ground Floor The building’s ground floor is split into three different parts. In the centre, the entrance, the restaurant on the left side, and on the right, the resulting room. The entire building is designed to function as a single route, therefore, the trip begins on the ground floor and ends on the same floor.

There were some offices on the left side of the entrance that would remain as offices (ticket office, manager offices). On the other hand, there were some rooms on the right side of the entrance that we removed the inner walls in order to create an internal ramp to demonstrate the darkness side of the concept. Also, there is an existing staircase passing through the entrance which brings visitors towards the next stage of the representation of the Renesso colony. An elevator will also be designed and added to the building.

Entrance

Restaurant

Resulting Room

A steel fence is designed to welcome visitors and lead them to begin their journey, beginning from the building’s left wing. It leads them to the restaurant.

The dining room will act as both a Restaurant and the old restaurant display. There were several tables in the dining room, and we designed and hung some of the existing tables from the ceiling as the original materials.

At the end of the journey, visitors end their journey in the Resulting Room. This room is extremely dark, with little light coming from outside which will show them the exit. Visitors here are going to have their own interpretation of the journey.

First Floor The Light Room After taking the stairs, visitors reach the first floor and are directed to the hallway. At the end of the hallway, there is an observation point that provides a spectacular view of the internal ramp and a view of the interior. On this floor, all doors are locked, only a door is opened to visitors near the observation point which is a very large room called The Light Room. The windows are sealed and covered in this room from the inside, and thus no light enters from the outside. That renders it extremely dark. The entry to The Light Room is on the right side, it is very dark on the right side, thus people enter the darkness and the room is being brighter as they walk on the left side, which will finally be very bright on the left side of the room. All lights are being displayed by artificial light.

Second Floor Plan For entering the second floor. Visitors take the external ramp from the first floor which will take them to the second floor. This ramp also takes them outside and offers a magnificent view of nature, giving them a sense of freedom and connection to nature and finally getting them to the second floor.

They face a transparent glass floor as they enter on the second floor, and from here they can see the lower floor (first floor).

To retain the originality and authenticity of the building, all rooms that were closed on the first floor are preserved with all original furniture and in an original layout, Visitors are only able to see them through the transparent glass floor. Also on this floor, there is a cafe-bar for refreshment and two symmetrical balconies. The journey then continues to the right side of the building where the internal ramp access point is.

This ramp takes visitors to the ground floor while giving spectacular views of the space of the interior. They can see and experience the building’s original materials from a closer viewpoint. This enclosed ramp gives the sense that there is darkness and not liberation. The interior ramp also represents the age of fascism. Finally, the visitors end up in the room in the Resulting Room and They can get their own interpretation of the journey.

NIENTE DA NASCONDERE Msc Interior Design Studio Group work Project Type Art Residency Professor Averna Marta Year 2018

Colonia di Montana Monta Maggio There is a small valley named Savignone in the heart of the Liguria region in the northwest of Italy. On the top of this valley, there is a concrete building called Colony of Montana Monta Maggio. The building was built as a colony for young girls during the time of fascism (1933). The aim of constructing the building was a summer camp for girls to be educated in different physical and cultural activities. At the present, the building is not in use, and it is deserted.

The building is placed with a pure connection to the natural nature on the top of the mountain. The concept is to preserve this relationship with nature. Therefore, it is aiming to create a special space for artists to detach themselves and stay with their group from the chaos of urbanism and to be inspired by each other.

This project is named NIENTE DA NASCONDERE, which in English means NOTHING TO HIDE. 24

Location : Savignone, Genoa, Italy

Since the Fascist era, the current state of the building has been abandoned without renovation. The building has a unique style of architecture. Neither exterior nor the interior is not in very good condition. but there is still the majority of the furniture inside. The characteristics of the building and its location, especially the relation between the building and nature, give the idea that it could be a peaceful place for artists to stay and create their arts in the building and eventually exhibit them to visitors.

Ground Floor Plan

Amphitheater

Jam Waiting Room

Next to the entrance door, a Jam waiting room is designed for people to meet and interact with each other. A wall with removable seats inside is designed to provide visitors with enough seats. Visitors would take their own seat off the wall and later put it back in place. The seats are made of acoustic wood tiles with a soft finish which is both acoustic and insulating. In the Jam room, three hanging shelves are designed to give a different frame to space. To carry stuff on them, shelves may also be used. There was a very wide room on the left side of the building, which we planned to convert into an amphitheater at an appropriate height. To maintain the originality and authenticity of the building, a box inside the space is designed that does not touch the walls and ceiling. The amphitheater has eighty-four seats and the same tool and method are used in the amphitheater in case of need for more seats. The designed amphitheater wall is installed in front of the front window. Visitors may also take some seats from the wall to get natural light inside the amphitheater in order to allow natural light to come into the amphitheater.

Jam Waiting Room

Jam Waiting Room

First Floor Plan

The floor plan of the first-floor and second-floor are almost the same. There are three wide rooms in the center of both floors with a small wall in between that separates each room space into two spaces. we take advantage of these small walls and used them as a shear wall for the new structure. we took advantage of small walls and used them as a shear wall for the new structure to support it. In order to maintain the originality of the building for the future, we design a box inside the existing rooms and not touch the walls and ceiling. These rooms function as studios for artists to create their art as well as a place for them to run their workshops. In order to demonstrate the relationship to nature from each studio, one box from the window exceeds the building finishing.

Studios Space

27

Third Floor

The height of the third floor is about 4.5 meters, We took advantage of this height and divided the floor into two levels vertically. On the first level, we designed a semi-private gathering place for artists where they can interact and meet.

There is also a shared kitchen and some private bathrooms for artists at this level. We designed seven living capsules on the second vertical level for artists to stay and rest there. Each capsule can accommodate up to two people, and this building can accommodate a total of 14 individuals. We designed an art gallery on the left side of the building that begins from the ground floor and continues to the fifth floor. The artist will display their artwork to the public in the gallery. To make the exhibition area more transparent and more closely connected to the pure nature of Savignone, the south and east elevations of the exhibition area are omitted in order to provide more interaction with nature.

PARCO DI ADRIANO Msc Thematic Studio Group work Project Type Urban Design Professors Rosso Renzo, Fontana Carlotta Year 2019

Revitalization of urban space with sustainable solutions

The project is located in the park of Adriano, a considerably new urban settlement with rapid growth. The goal of this project is to revitalize the unbuilt area for the public and the state’s benefit. This is an area with a high flooding risk that can cause sorts of pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages.

The landscape is designed to prevent floodwaters against threatening the settlements. The vegetation is specially picked to create an ecosystem in order to fight against a local problem; mosquitoes.

The project also aims to enhance the transportation qualities of the area.

ALWAYS TREASURE UNDERGROUND Msc Interior Design Studio Group work Project Type Urban Design Professor Morena Marzia Year 2018

Overtourism in Amsterdam This design “Always Treasure Underground” is mainly developed to solve the problem of over-tourism in regions where tourists and residents co-exist, by means of partly separating the circulation of those two and increasing the quality of life of residents.

As can be seen from some news about Amsterdam’s over-tourism problem, the government does not want to reduce but maintain a stable value of tourists. Most of the measures been proposed are turning out to work just temporarily. Conventional solution of renovation space for tourists and residents could enhance their living experience. But in the uncertain future, this will surely attract more tourists and the condition will be worsen.

To maintain GDP, but also to appease the people.

Diminishing the quality of life of the local populace

Life quality of the locals negative emotions are prone to infect

positive mood is not easy to infect

Quality of visitor experience “Improve the quality of residents’ life.”

Concept, separation of residents and tourists

Life quality of the locals affects the quality of visitor experience, so the direction of mitigation issues is improving the quality of residents’ life. Diversion of tourists residents could make locals a better life than before. We try to solve these questions in a soft way that allows residents and tourists to have relatively independent activities but not completely isolated. Creating a new city center is the most direct way of separation, but it’s not a cost-effective way. Through research for Amsterdam, it is found that there is a difference in the use of public space between tourists and residents, so that there is a possibility of stratification in urban space, guiding in proper isolation of tourists and residents. Our space is three-dimension and our design can happen in the city’s unknown third dimension. With the increase of tourists, the user’s changed a lot. In the beginning, we think, different activities using time may active in different activity levels. However, in the same public 2D space, if the users are merely separated by time, overcrowded tourists will still invade the residents’ public space from time to time. Then start thinking about the possibility of excavation on the riverbank, and separate the two populations functionally. And the visual effect of the window after digging is the same as that of the tourist favorite boat.

Riverbank

Design according to the exsiting location of trees

Analysis of Quality of Spaces 40

Mold formation Two molds were set according to the original planting distance of the river banks. The small one is the simple entrance, and the big one is the space of other functions.After chosen the function and model them within the modelus, we can do arrange the function in combination, several different function can compose an integral funtion. In this way, the function can be used properly. Several that combined funtion cover the whole range of the river bank, making a pleasing space for the visitors called HUNDREDS METERS.

More functional space for the tourist Tourists’ invasion of residential space is also responsible for the decline of population in this area. But now they can be satisfied by the underground functions, which can be categorized as serving space and public space. And it also provides shelter against the strong wind and other climate conditions. When the canal freezing, it serves as a platform for people to go inside skating. These areas can provide tourists even the residents with a more mixed public space. And when traveling underground, tourists are like digging the treasure to find those amazing functions.

Release the pressure of the resident New designed space will encourage tourists to experience the area and helps to reduce the number of tourists from the streets. For example, an underground smoking area with a ventilation system helps to reduce pollution in the air and an underground restaurant will keep more seats.

Flexible units We study the topology of the riverbank in Amsterdam and find that the tree is the separation point of the riverbank. So, we keep the same spacing of two trees for the units, which is 12m. The depth of the unit is 3.6 m, while the width is 5.4m. In each unit, we arrange traffic and various functions. With different ways of the combination of the units, we can get a more complete space, which will cover the riverbank.

What’ more, assembled in the factory, the construction will be much easier.
