Via Lamarmora in Milan
From an abandoned building to a new complex: urban renewal in the centre of Milan
From an abandoned building to a new complex: urban renewal in the centre of Milan
The project won the design idea competition set out in 2015 by the PSD, one of the main organisations on the national architecture scene. Its aim was the urban restoration and renewal of the “Casa di Cura città di Milano” complex, which had been abandoned for years, to create a new building complex. The theme was complicated and challenging, considering the location of the area in the centre of Milan, the size of the project and the considerable operational difficulties. It was to create a functional, architecturally prestigious building that could optimise the use of the lot and the re-qualification of the context to make the project more effective.
The project was approved by the Landscape Commission and aims to solve the parking issue with three underground parking levels with the seven above-ground floors for collective services, offices and housing.
Thanks to the coherence of the building with the surrounding area, to the aesthetic quality and compositional attention, the project is a significant improvement also for the context, using distances and uncovered areas, with mutual improvement for urban regeneration of a central part of the city.
