Method

After a careful analysis of the context, the search for a matrix, understood as design calligraphy, paved the way for the definition of the project. In it we see both the flows of different urban populations, students, tourists, residents, and the directions for the environmental mending that converge towards the road, and open towards the lake. The two-dimensional structure of relations then had to reveal itself in its possible spatial configuration, developing in two shells containing the activities, raised on a glass level, which opens towards the market.

The three passages, the market, the covered passage and the panoramic terrace are not rigidly defined, there is no clear distinction between private space and public space, so as to have an expansion of the latter even in height. As if in this case Nolli's plan representation were to become a sort of section. These three steps are flanked by three activities: market, exhibition and incubator for start-ups, in a sort of multifunctional hybrid, addressed to different urban populations, in which they interact not only because they are connected, on the same direction, by mediation spaces such as study rooms, bookshop and café, but also because the market becomes the central nave overlooked by the exhibition and the incubator. These functions and these paths are finally connected in the two large poles of open space of the project: the square is the urban garden which, on different levels, connects the project with the context, enriching the environmental system and the attractiveness of services in this neighborhood. of Lecco.

PROJECT: THE MARKET

The heart of the project is the covered market. A hybrid that becomes a connecting axis, a pedestrian infrastructure that also assumes a function, o ering services along a route that has the premise of connecting. The market, therefore, stands as a major axis in a sort of multifunctional hybrid in which the functions interact not only because they are connected, on the same direction, by mediation spaces, but also because the market becomes the central aisle they overlook, becoming itself mediator. The colors then guide the visitor into an empathic relationship with the place.

The exhibition path that develops along the entire length of the site, con guring itself as a slender environment. The reticular structure of the shells in which it is contained allows light to penetrate through the alveolar polycarbonate coating, softly illuminating the works. The nal part is the emblem of mediation, in which the path enjoys a large space with a double height, for the larger works, and is surrounded by the ascending and descending ramps that embrace it.
