Auditorium in Porta Volta - Milano Architectural Design Studio Prof.Cino Zucchi AY: 2009-2010 Students: Aurélie Sabatier Anita Sala
The project reacts in various ways to the context. The Auditorium form is the consequence of the squares, views and tension it generates. One corner is aligned with the center of the ‘Circonvalazione’ in order to create a landmark. The angle formed by the auditorium and the perimeter of the area, in the ‘Casello’ side, enables the creation of the foyer. The external ramp generates the compact volumes underneath, which are subjected to subtractions to emphasize the double access from the park and from the street playing with shadows and light. The Bookshop on the Viale Crispi side closes the Multipurpose Hall volume and creates an access to the park. On the other side, the less noisy and chaotic one, the volume of the restaurant tries to establish a relation with Viale Pasubio, generating a square. Its compactness is accentuated by its materiality. The brass finishing is reflected in the glossy finishing of the building revealing the precious aspect of its interior. The system of circulation is based upon the concept of fluidity. Indeed, the building is generated by the ramp in its outside, debouching into the plaza on the roof of the auditorium. However, the roof gives a special view on the park and makes its process generation understandable.
