2.1.3 Functional program
The guiding intention for the ground floor project is to make it more permeable and open to the use of the neighborhood. Therefore the general intention is to equip the ground floor with common functions, moving part of the housing offer present in the low buildings and relocating it inside the towers. In this way it is possible to obtain space for new functions for the neighbourhood, the inhabitants and the student population of the nearby university complex. The presence of green areas placed between Via Russoli and the squares makes the latter with a more private character but, the intention is to avoid this character, in order to follow the objective of making the ground floor of the building complex more open to the life of the neighborhood, following the resident population desire for openness, also in order to regenerate the area. Therefore these closed areas will be removed and new green areas will be placed on the roofs of low buildings with a specific use (urban gardens) that the existing green areas do not have.

AIMS
The function that at the moment is less in tune with the planned character of the ground floor is that of the cellars, which will then be moved to the lower floor, next to the areas already used for this purpose, in the planned extension part. unique linear path
replacement of the existing ramps and stairs
not enough space for flexibility in use
not easily accessible because of enclosures
fragmentation of the groundfloor
