The project was aimed at conveying a new updated image to the brand.

The new architectural façade system was designed keeping in mind the client’s intention to give a glamorous touch to the facility. The pre existing industrial warehouse was partially transformed in the interior and completely remodeled in the exterior: the wire mesh diaphragm applied to the façade guarantees sun shading and privacy where needed. Thanks to new transparencies and light effects added to the overall appearance of the building the entrance has acquired a uniform and captivating look.

The project, that originates from the existing preliminary project for two public residential buildings, is based on the design of a “zero emission” building with particular attention paid towards the achievement of acoustic and safety comfort standards.
The project mainly concerns the façade system and, in the specific, a double skin applied to the existing façade to shade the rooms exposed to intense summer radiation and prevent summer overheating; also a system of greenhouses is introduced in the building, to preheat the air during winter. The above mentioned retrofitting strategies guarantee a passive behavior of the buildings, the maximization of thermal gain during winter and the minimization of the latter during summer. The roofing system will also be used to optimize the building’s energetic efficiency by introducing photovoltaic panels, a shading louvered system and extensive vegetation: the green roof guarantees thermal and acoustic comfort, it filters smog and it absorbs 70% of rain water, which is later recycled and used for irrigation. Last, but not least, the project introduces a Geothermic System with ventilation towers for natural ventilation, heating and cooling.

The aim of the project was to transform the Library in a live organism, capable of relating with the social and cultural context of the territory, searching for new material and immaterial spaces and relying on what we inherited form the past in cultural (the historic books collection) and environmental (the interior court with secular trees) terms. The main goal of the extension is to create new and larger areas for the public (reference sections, reading rooms, computer workstations), for the management of library resources (book storage and archives) and employees (administrative offices and services), with particular care for equal access issues. The project evolves around the central green open court where the ancient trees are located and will be preserved and valorized. The vegetation enters the new structure through the new auditorium’s foyer and a suspended path overlooking the court connects the old and the new structure. Therefore the court becomes the pivot element of the project which separates but, at the same time, brings the two structures together form both a functional and a visual point of view.
