The area is located in a complex context, characterized by several critical issues. This area has been reconsidered as diverse design opportunities, through the use of an in-depth reading method with subsequent rewriting. Margins and barriers become a device to relate to the surrounding landscape. The existing wall offers the opportunity to develop a continuous park project and new public spaces that emerge from its perimeter. The general system is structured through a urban strip. This element, recovering the old buildings, rewrites and emphasizes existing balance between built and open space: public space becomes the generating system. Landscape design, energy and environmental sustainability are fundamental opportunities for designing new spaces. The strategy of reconverting existing volumes tends to keep its shape through an additional approach. The new buildings, designed to be as adaptable as possible to the market, will be made with a pillars structure, which guarantees a high flexibility while retaining a clear formal character and identity.
