With the Viale Giulini Affordable Housing project, Rome-based studio Alvisi Kirimoto is redesigning the outskirts of Barletta (Puglia) through a social housing intervention. The project, located in the south-west of the city, in the new Zona 167 district, aims to fuse the urban macro-scale with the domestic dimension, within a larger system of projects to revitalize the neighbourhood, including the Parco dell’Umanità — Design of the pedestrian promenade by ABDR.
The studio has long been committed to the theme of urban regeneration in Italy and beyond – from its commitment with Renzo Piano for the G124 working group, to the open construction site of a nursery school, civic centre, library and park in Grotta Perfetta in the southern suburbs of Rome, and the activation of experimental laboratories in the large shopping centres in the peripheries of the cities of Nanjing and Shanghai in China.
Casa Tersicore was built in Milan, near the Naviglio Grande. On the street, the body of the building is four stories high, which bends around the corner, and then rises seven stories high in a type of turret. The ground floor of the building is set slightly back from the edge of the loggia on the first and second floors. This loggia runs along both the street front and on the side orthogonal to it, towards the interior of the lot. The decorative suspended pilasters (lesene) of the loggia, 15cm thick and variable in width, are designed in a slowed perspective (prospettiva rallentata), so that on the long side viewed from the street they appear equidistant because of the perspectival view, while in reality their intercolumniation is progressively greater as they get further away from the street.
Degli Esposti Architetti teamed up with Eisenman Architects and AZstudio to design this stunning residential building in Milan, Italy. Take a look at the complete story after the jump.
For a triangular site included in the Piano Pavia-Masera (1909-1911), bounded by buildings built from the beginning of the 20th century to the Seventies, this project seeks to create a distinctly contemporary apartment building, while discussing both architecture ideas and the context, presenting itself as a current milestone in a genealogy of the Milanese house. First of all, this building solves the issue of the street relationship, without a construction along the boundaries of the block, like three exceptional precedents: the Ca’ Brütta by Giovanni Muzio, the Casa Rustici by Giuseppe Terragni and Pietro Lingeri, and the Corso Italia Complex by Luigi Moretti.
PHYD, the digital venture of The Adecco Group born from the technological collaboration with Microsoft, which combines a digital platform and a physical space, aims to improve the human capital and showcase it over time. The company turned to Il Prisma team in order to create a phygital place that would focus on people, in order to make them more competitive and future-proof. The final result is a space located inside a two-story building in Via Tortona 31, Milan – digital and physical alike, first and only in Italy, where you can train your talents and enhance your potential.
After winning an International competition, Studio Marco Piva has been commissioned to project a new residential building complex, in the broader context of the renovation of Via Principe Eugenio in Milan.
The project propose a modern architectural solution able to reestablish a continuity with the city’s public landscape and the other surrounding buildings, consolidating the relationship between the building and the public spaces.
A+V Family House is the latest project in Livorno, Italy completed by MODO architettura + design Studio, which consists in a total renovation of a building from the 30s-40s of the last century, consisting of two levels above ground, a basement used as a cellar and a roof terrace. At the time of the intervention, the property was devoid of valuable elements and with a distribution of spaces to make it more functional to the customer’s needs. Originally the rooms were all clearly separated, the roof terrace was difficult to access and the bathrooms were two but obtained in the same room.
A self-sufficient, independent healthcare facility that meets the needs of emergency architecture, but at the same time can become a permanent building. Emergency Hospital 19 is a project developed by Humanitas, with the engineering and design support of Techint and architect Filippo Taidelli for the management and containment of infectious diseases within hospital facilities. A project in which architecture, medicine and engineering contribute to defining spaces for management and care: efficient, sustainable and with a human face.

Lotto 12 is part of the Garden cooperative in Marina di Ragusa characterized by accommodation that develops on two levels and which are surrounded by large gardens.The internal space of the ground floor is divided by the staircase and the insertion of some “hyper-furnishings”, which contain various functions and technological systems. These volumes are custom-designed in blue Valchromat and in white lacquered MDF: the kitchen block divides the dining room from the cooking area and contains two sliding panels that can be extracted if necessary by isolating the two rooms; a second wardrobe divides the dining room from the living area by incorporating a pillar of the house; a large library in the living room, shielded by large sliding walls, allows for ever-changing configurations.The internal flooring is in smoothed concrete protected by a transparent polyurethane resin and the staircase is made of concrete and is covered with an iron sheet.
This large public building aims through its design to achieve three explicitly stated goals: to provide office and support spaces for government departments to provide outdoor gathering places to exemplify the most advanced green practices
