CO-SKYSCRAPER

Proposal of reuse of Libeskind tower in CityLife, based on the new visions of the city and the new paradigms of work and living.

Year: 2021 - 2022

Site: Milan (MI), Italy

Design team size: 2 members

Description: The “CO-SKYSCRAPER” project is part of the homonym master’s thesis with the aim to analyse the constantly reorganizing and organically changing urban context according to the technological evolutions and social changes affecting the city. The typological element of the office skyscraper seen as an urban element generally isolated from the context in which it is located has been questioned in order to propose a methodology of re-functionalization and connection to the surrounding neighbourhood, allowing the city and its inhabitants to re-appropriate it. The BIM approach and parametric design allowed us to seamlessly enter into the life cycle of the building and apply this methodology to the Libeskind tower in CityLife, provocatively chosen as it is representative of contemporary Milanese urban development that follows an obsolete functional logic that makes them detached from the context. A project therefore that inspires progress, modernity and that can be a replicable and reproducible example in other contexts and on less representative buildings.

THE CO-SKYSCRAPER

Sky garden

The choice of the Libeskind tower as a case study has been made as a provocation to the phenomena that lead to the construction of new shiny isolated towers with old functional program in an highly saturated office space market with high vacancy rates. In 2018, before the Sars-Cov 2 pandemic, up to 15 % of office spaces in the Milan urban area where unused with a raising trend thanks to the introduction of smart working in many companies after the pandemic.

Based on the high vacancy rate of office spaces, raised after the Sars-Cov 2 pandemic due to the implementation of smart working, a reduction of office spaces utilization by 40% has been supposed.

Sky bar

This massive reduction as been seen as an opportunity to implement a new vision of skyscraper that accommodate working spaces as well as living spaces and for the neighbourhood inhabitant.

Key element to enhance the connection between the tower and the surrounding area has been the design of a podium at the ground level that host large public function that can’t be located inside the tower.

In order to make the podium more integrated with the context the façades have been raised or lowered to prevent an excessive visual occlusion and an internal public distribution has been developed.

The final step to make the building more connected with the surroundings is to incorporate it in the green system of the Citylife park by creating a green promenade that covers the podium roof and reach the top of the tower.

Solar and energetic design One of the main transformations of the project is located on top of the building called “the crown”. According to the original program of the tower this spaces where mainly unused. In the Co-skyscraper vision a public sky garden and a sky bar has been located at this floor to represent the end of the tower green promenade.

To create a better internal environment some roof has been demolished to accommodate solar greenhouses. Beside creating a green living space inside the tower the greenhouses are capable of generating free heat during winter and naturally clean the highly polluted exterior air for internal uses.

To reduce the thermal loads generated from the sun during the summer a sun shading system as been added to the south facade. The system is made out of horizontal photovoltaic elements that follow the curvature of the facade in order to maintain one of the main elements of the original design by Daniel Libeskind.

The podium The process for the definition of the podium starts by identify zone behind the tower as the project area, in order to don’t interfere with Tre Torri plaza, key element of the masterplan. The various elements of the context beside the definition of the boundaries has been used to define the location of the four main function of the podium: a sport hub in the proximity of the historical “velodromo Vigorelli”, a library near the park, a museum on east and a SPA in the center. After the functional definition, the plan has been extruded and the façades height’s modified to maximise light and privacy in certain areas, such as the SPA. The now defined roof has been made green to became part of the park and a starting point for tower’s green promenade.

Roof form finding To define an organic shape roof, well integrated with the park a generative design approach as been used. The form finding process starts with the definition of vectors for each function the vectors amplitude’s is used as a pull point for a surface that will represent the roof. For the final shape definition the algorithm as been optimized using the add-on “Design Explore” in order to reach the internal height goals defined for the spaces while maintain a reasonable level of curvature that would allow the shape realizability.

The final steps was to cut the surface based on the area boundaries and the creation of skylights to allow more light to enter the podium.

Structural design To deal with the long structural spans and the free form complex shape of the roof a steel spatial warren truss system has been chosen. The main benefits associated with this system is the possibility of create a curved shape with a relatively low weight.

At first Grasshopper, the Rhinoceros Plugin, has been used to define the structural truss geometry from the previously generated roof surface. Then, with the help of “karamba 3D” a add-on for FE structural analysis, the structure elements has been dimensioned under normal and seismic loads cases.

Natural light design Key element for the project has been the study of the project relation with the natural light. The first challenge was to supply every room of the podium with the right amount of light, to face this problem a set of skylight on the roof has been added.

The second challenge was to protect the internal of the building from excessive sun irradiation. In order to face this problematic a system of vertical sun shading has been designed for the east and west facade and a horizontal catwalk for maintenance and solar shading for the south facade.

SOCIAL SQUARE

Project for a co-housing residence near Bovisa campus of Polytechnic university of Milan

Year:

2020 - 2021

Site: Milan Bovisa (MI), Italy

Design team size: 4 members

Description: Social Square is the project for the construction of a co-housing building in the Bovisa district of Milan, near one of the campuses of Polytechnic university of Milan. The residence, positioned where previously industrial buildings were located, develops around a central green courtyard which serves as a meeting place for residents and outsiders.

The project has been developed from the concept, focusing particularly on the aspects of passive management of energy and light, to the pre construction detailing phase where constructibility and technological characteristics as been analysed, from detail and structural design to construction phases and timing.

13

Masterplan The project site is located near one of Polytechnic university of Milan campuses.

Following the demolition of part of the preexisting buildings in the area it was decided to develop the residential complex with a courtyard shape.

The courtyard, hosting a small wooded park, is the key element of the project, designed to encourage socialization between people, both residents and non-residents.

Furthermore, the heights of the south and north fronts have been varied to maximize the amount of light entering the courtyard.

Energy consumption balance

Photovoltaic energy production

During the development of the project, the study of passive strategies for reducing consumption and optimal management of internal lighting levels was essential.

A key element of this strategy is the use of a solar greenhouse on the south façade overlooking the courtyard which maximizes free solar gains in the winter and activates a natural ventilation that refreshes the rooms during the summer.

Other strategies used to improve the building sustainability has been the reuse of rainwater for irrigation and a photovoltaic system.

Below is an Active House radar that encompasses the building’s performance from an energy and sustainability point of view.

From a technological point of view the building was developed with a dry stratified approach. Insulated sandwich panels which act as support for the horizontal and vertical closures have been mounted on the main structural frame made of metal carpentry. An external insulation system with a ventilated façade and a system of walls and ceilings made of drywall where installed on the panels. This approach allows to obtain a very high energy performance with limited walls and roofs thickens as well as a faster realization compared to more traditional methods.

COPACABANA’S PAVILION

Project of a pavilion for live performance in Rio de Janeiro using a data driven parametric design approach

Year: 2020 - 2021

Site: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Design team size: 3 members

Description: Located on plaza Almirante Júlio de Noronha, near Copacabana beach in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeir, the Copacabana’s pavilion has been designed to create a space for capoeira performer to dance and exhibit protected from the harsh sun and hot temperatures of the region. Inspiration for the building form and colours has been taken from Brazilian flora and fauna, in particular from the most famous bird of the region called pappagallo.

Other theme of the design process is the use of a parametric design approach to optimization of various aspect of the building such has sun shading, structures and constructibility aspect. In order to archive this the project has been developed entirely using Grasshopper, a plug in of the 3D modelling software Rhinoceros, that allow to parametrize geometry and volumes. For the light analysis the add-ons “HoneyBee“ and “LadyBug” have been utilized while Karamba 3D plug in has been used for finite elements structural analysis.

Definition of the structure

The project concept takes inspiration from Brazilian flora and fauna. The first element is the palm leaf, this element acts as a spine to the structure of the pavilion onto which rods are grafted and moved to emulate the flight of the parrot.

Thanks to the parametric methodology, the angles between the rods have been optimized to maximize the level of shading of the square below.

Variation of wing elements angles to optimize shading on the plaza

Structural analysis To understand the structural behaviour of the pavilion, a finite element analysis (FEM) was carried out with the Grasshopper Karamba 3D add-on.

This analysis allowed us to size the circular profiles that make up the structure as well as helping us to optimize the position of the cables of the tensile structure in order to obtain a stable and light design. Specifically, each wing have a constant section along their entire development while the central axis changes section based on the loads at each point.

Colourization of the panels based on the dragon fruit colour gradient

For the skin of the building, the initial inspiration came from the capoeira dance that lead us to use a triangular pattern that recall the basic step of the dance.

For the adjustment of the holes on the panels, the level of annual solar radiation was calculated and larger holes were opted for the panels where the radiation is greater.

For the panels a colour gradient obtained from the dragon fruit, typical of the area, has been applied.

Optimization of panels colours

The application of a colour gradient initially led to the need to create about 2000 panels each with a unique colour.

This costly situation has been optimized by discretizing the gradient in a set of 24 colours and replacing, via a Grasshopper script, the colour of each non-optimized panel with the closest one from the new set.

BRACCO’S HEADQUARTERS

Design of a Headquarters for a pharmaceutics company

Year: 2018 - 2019

Site: Lambrate (MI), Italy

Design team size: 4 members

Description: The project involves the design of the headquarters of the pharmaceutical company Bracco, in the first place the re functionalization of the area has been developed with the demolition of part of the pre-existing buildings and by integrating those in better conditions within a new masterplan. The new vision of the area is structured with a public park on the south and function for the citizens in the northern part, where a guest house, a museum and the bracco headquarters have been located.

Inside the headquarters three main functions have been developed, office spaces, with a surface of 8700 m2, are located on the north part. The central part contains 1300 m2 of spaces for events and conference has been developed like a bridge that allow the connection between the plaza and a parking lot located behind the building. The last function is the auditorium, located on the south, in direct connection with the function located in the bridge. It’s from here that a green roof that allow the people to go from the park to the building’s roof top at 37 m over the ground level.

25

26

Façade design The façade’s concept start with the hexagon shape as a representation of nature as well as the logo of the company that the headquarters has been designed for. The hexagonal panel opening has been managed parametrically in function of light shading and view from inside to the surrounding.

Design of two houses with different construction technologies

Year: 2016 - 2017

Site: Lecco (LC), Italy

Team size: 6 members

Description: The project scope is to design two houses to the pre-construction detail level using two different design approaches.

The first approach is more innovative and is based on a main steel structure that carry the envelope and the partition made of light elements assembled in site to obtain a lighter and more energetic efficient building.

The second approach is a more traditional one, based on the use of more massive material such as concrete, bricks and wood.
