GREENHOUSING
Year: 2020
Location: Prato, Italy
The urban regeneration of San Giusto district, besides the masterplan proposal, included smaller scale interventions for a more sustainable-living and eco-friendly community.
The concept is based on a modular system of small houses, that can be placed in the area. This housing solution is combined with a system of urban gardening, that consists of both private gardens as well as agricultural fields that could be used by the students of the agriculture school located next to it. Some of the slots can be rented by other residents of San Giusto as well. Some units are exclusively dwelling, others are mixed with cafés, offices or workshops in the ground floor.

PRATO PUBLIC HOUSING
Year: 2020
Location: San Giusto, Prato, Italy
The main building complex of public housing in Prato needs a series of alterations and reforming in order to provide better living conditions to its low-income residents. The installation of a new facade with several features will improve the sustainability and energy efficiency of the buildings, as well as it will improve the exterior appearance of the Via Turchia estate, built in 1992.

Facade Alterations
Improving sustainability and efficiency
Besides the brick facade that required a new insulation layer, the front balconies in each apartment were affected by overheating as they were single glazed and south facing. Therefore, it is key to provide a solution that will decrease the temperature during the summer, but allow solar energy gains during winter season.

TEXTURE TILE FEATURES
The client was asked to send four reference pictures in order to get a sense of style and be more precise in proposals. Then, a moodboard with material combinations was created and requested to select one of them. The client prefered a minimal cozy style with light surfaces due to lack of natural light, in combination with bamboo furniture. A full replacement of plumbing was required as long as an enlargement of the window. The tiles were selected by our team. My final solution included a textured tile featured wall. All tiles and plumbing features are products of KARAG S.A.

Shop Renovation
After a detailed survey where all dimensions were measured, a research and movement analysis was executed in order to find the ideal circulation within the enlarged space and simultaneously incorporate the new coffee space.
This renovation process included the demolition of the wall that divided the two shops in order to execute the extension. The layout of the shelves should be completed with the existing pieces and as less as possible new shelving units. Only two were bought with the final layout. The cashier furniture piece were custom-designed as well as the wooden space dividers for two spots in the shop.
The client requested to have blue features in the wall as it matches the branding of the shop. Therefore, the furniture and shelving were designed in white and light oak colored wooden surfaces.
