/ Ansaldo

The competition entry for “Ansaldo – City of Cultures” localizes architectural interventions within the existing building complex in order to create spaces and flows for cultural exchange. Following a sort of acupuncture procedure, the body of the building is not only an architectural reaction with an contemporary theme, but also an attempt to reorganize the relationship between interior and exterior spaces. While conserving the area’s industrial character, the project offers spaces for informal gatherings that extend the meanings of the spaces beyond its physical contents.
