The Olympic Village - Student housing

The creation of an Olympic Village in Milan’s iconic Porta Romana neighborhood for the upcoming Winter Games is more than just a temporary solution for athlete housing. The aim is to create a village that, after the games, will be used as student housing and create a new student district, making the hosting of the games more economically and socially sustainable. The main feature that defines the structure is the two cores which are going through the whole building and serve as a main support, providing it with the service area, the communications, and the storage rooms

All the public and common spaces are on the ground floor in order to have more connectivity with the public street, reflecting it as well in the use of materials, as the ground floor is completely open with its glass façade. The building is thoughtfully designed to accommodate specific functions on different floors (such as dormitories, cooking areas, social and lounge spaces) with spaces that will serve for the competitors for the duration of the games and then will be seamlessly retrofitted for students and related activities for them. This project is decided to be put in the portfolio due to its innovative approach of repurposing the Olympic Village into a sustainable and versatile student housing district.

UniverCity

The project “UniverCity” aims to transform the main campus of the University of Sarajevo into a modern and vibrant educational hub. The proposed plan encompasses the construction of eighteen new facilities while also revitalizing three existing structures. This comprehensive approach seeks to create new environment for the students in the city, through the means of overlapping regular forms, bringing into a reality a significant vertical transition in-between buildings through different heights and a new landscape. To visually unify the three buildings within the architectural faculty, a striking curtain wall has been implemented at the base. This architectural element not only serves as a unifying feature but also establishes a dialogue between the facades of the buildings. The vertical sheds, positioned at various heights, add a dynamic aesthetic quality to the structure, creating an intriguing visual experience as one navigates through the campus. This project is included in the portfolio for its innovative vision of transforming the University of Sarajevo’s main campus into a modern and vibrant educational hub.

Ecomuseo Terre d’acqua fra Oglio e Po

Flexibility, community, dynamic. These are just a few of the keywords that describes the concept of the project. Flexible spaces are the main idea of the design, because it can allow for improved movement due to their inherent capability to provide ample space and movable elements. The flexible furniture is a reflection of the contemporary behavior, taking into account that they have great adaptability, they can be moved around easily, they can be folded and unfolded, and that they can perform different functions in a single piece. Due to the isolated location of the Ecomuseum, the place is rarely used. Therefore, in order to bring the community together and enhance the atmosphere of the space, the focus is not only on one event to be held there, but a variety of them, such as conferences, concert and workshops, from lectures, all the way to cooking classes. Analyzing the topography of the surrounding, it is traced over and placed on the ceiling, inside the museum. Using baffles of different lengths, hanged by wires, gives the idea of tridimensional landscape. In this way, a wavy effect is achieved, imitating the river, providing a sensation of movement and dynamism. Because of the idea of various activities and events, bringing the community together and creating a learning environment, this project is included in the portfolio.

Another aspect that we integrated in this project, is the dynamic concept. ter, working to protect the village from flooding, gave us an idea, on how tecture. Indeed, numerous architects assisted in this field. For instance, Lu igi Moretti was the first architect to use the phrase “parametric architecture”, on the ceiling, inside the museum. Using baffles of different lengths, hanged dynamism. The TECHLITE® Round Hanging Baffles can reduce noise, excessive reverberance, increase speech intelligibility, reduce stress and stress-related symptoms, help maximize concentration and increase overall comfort. Taking these benefits into account, it is evident how the design de well. These tubes are put in place by the Grippel Angel Helix Hangers by Acoustec, which are low profile, easy to adjust and can secure hangers for fibreglass and dense foam acoustic panels. Moreover, we used polished ce ramic tiles on the central area
