Design Phase: Architecture competition, Schematic design, Design development, Construction drawings.

Area: 19000 m2 Place: Castelguelfo di Bologna (BO), Italy Year: 2020 The project was developed after winning a competition to select the best design from those submitted. Principles of conserving green areas and limiting environmental impacts were a fundamental inspiration throughout the design process. A soft organic curve that stretches across the lot, becoming an axis symbolically identified with a plant that sinks its roots into the streets of the neighbourhood, then grows freely in the landscape following the typical patterns of natural evolution. The project is divided into 4 buildings: the Headquarter, the Auditorium, the Multifunctional Building and the Warehouse. These are connected by a covered path that protects the users, generating a system that integrates architecture and equipped green spaces.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | E. Montale Power Station

08

Design Phase: Architecture competition, Area: 15000 m2 Place: La Spezia, Italy Year: 2020 The project concerns the recovery of part of the “Eugenio Montale Power Station” following the reconversion of the coal plants and the divestment of various areas. The aim of the proposal is to represent a new idea of the city and of the power station, creating a symbol to communicate the Enel Group’s commitment to the ongoing energy transition. The heart of the new project is the “Green House”, the building gradually fragments to make way for the glass walls of the greenhouse that end with the south wing, a fully glazed greenhouse in which to grow and experiment with new technologies for intensive hydroponic and aeroponic agricultural production with very low water consumption. The cladding panels are made of cement and coal dust recovered from the still existing charcoal pile, while the metalwork may be recovered from the demolition of the abandoned buildings. The gradual disintegration of the closed parts of the building represents the evolution of the city’s history and the gradual transition from the economy of traditional industry to an innovative and sustainable one.

Tree house module

Design Phase: Architecture competition, Place: Mothe-Chandeniers & L’Ebaupinay & Vibrac, France Year: 2020 Climb to see the world from a new perspective, protect yourself in a safe place: this is what a tree house represents.

As a stem for its leaves, the proposal is to adopt just one technological element to touch the ground: a single central column to support one, two or three submodules at the desired height, which contains also all the systems. To create an independent structure allows to do not damage the tree. Furthermore, it permits to choose the desired height of the house related to the tree. The result of that combination is a space which has a 360° view on the surrounding landscape, exploiting both the inside and the roof of each submodule. The exterior of the facades is made by wooden shingles to create an architecture that integrates harmoniously with the surrounding nature,creating a protective layer that can transform itself according to the natural changes due to the passage of time. As a perfect biological being, it works efficiently only when all the parts are together.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | New entrance to Bagni Casinò Beach

16

Design Phase: Design Phase: Schematic design, Design development, Construction drawings, Construction.

Place: Levanto (SP), Italy Year: 2018-2020 The project concerns the reorganisation of the entrance area to the beach, through the construction of a temporary structure which during the bathing season is installed next to the first two arches of the existing viaduct. Since the structures are temporary, it was decided to place a single detachable architectural element rotated with respect to the viaduct, that could unify all the services and be readable both from the sea and from urban spaces. The new architectural element is arranged in relation to the two arches, simulating an interlocking arrangement that leaves them completely visible and allows a better view of the sea. In addition to the entrance office and the infirmary, the new rotated body contains spaces for staff, showers and toilets for customers.

The building is characterised by an internal wooden structure onto which the external perimeter HPL panels are fixed, which will be more durable over time, given their use and the proximity to the sea.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | Multistorey car park in Levanto

20

Design Phase: Design Phase: Schematic design, Design development.

Place: Levanto (SP), Italy Year: 2019 The project consists of a multi-storey car park with 250 parking spaces at the entrance to the town of Levanto. The most significant pre-existence with which to deal is the counterfort of the railway with a height of 6 metres. The ground floor, in the area facing the street, is also occupied by a low compact volume covered in stone with a curved form in which spaces for services and offices are located. The stone walls are pierced by a series of windows of varying sizes. The stone base has multiple functions: to seek a visual relationship with the nearby curved buttress and to simulate the first “dry� wall of the hill itself. The elevations are strongly characterised by the dense repetition of the vertical metalwork pillars. These are then joined by other light full-height vertical elements whose main purpose is to screen the view from outside of the cars parked on the garage ramps. These secondary, nonload-bearing elements will be in direct contact with the ground and will become a support for climbing plants.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | Piazza Cavour Market

24

Design Phase: Architecture competition (2° Place) Place: La Spezia (SP), Italy Year: 2019 The design proposal is based on the desire to integrate the historic fabric with the renovated form of the existing building, aiming to maintain the identity of one of the city’s symbolic places. The elements characterising the architectural project are the joining of the pavilions by means of the new roof formed by the large central wave, the perimeter closure of the pavilions, the extension of the useful spaces for new activities and services through the construction of intermediate mezzanines, the reorganisation of the existing commercial spaces and finally the link between the streets of the commercial area and the urban fabric. The pavilions are unified two by two by the central undulating roofs supported by large, scenic metal tree-shaped pillars.

They are clearly identified in relation to their merchandise use, emphasised by the use of continuous ceilings on which images referring to the goods or to the specific use of the place are printed.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | Ripafratta Fortress

28

Design Phase: Architecture competition Place: Ripafratta (PI), Italy Year: 2019 The intervention on the fortress consists of a single architectonical object, being able to adapt to the different soil heights, respecting and protecting the archaeological pre-existences which thanks to movable closures can be visited by everyone during the whole year.

The main concept is to build reversable interventions and to use materials connected with the suggestions coming from the contiguous forests. Besides, the intervention provides the pathway restoration between the stronghold and the sighting towers, in two different ways: the first, which is open to everyone leads to the new panoramic terrace of the Niccolai Tower. It is equipped with relaxing areas and art installations in a tight connection link with the natural environment. The second one, used as training trail through climbing constructions of growing degrees of difficulty leads to the Centino Tower. There, an independent structure juxtaposed to the existing wall has been installed in order to create a climbing faรงade. One tower to heal the soul, the other one to heal the body.

Matteo Barreca | architecture | French Highscool Paul Gauguin

30

Design Phase: Pre-design, Schematic design Area: 14580 m2 Place: Panama City, Panama Year: 2018 The LycÊe Français Paul Gauguin building, located in Panama, has all the specifications required for a comprehensive education.

The building is very compact, with two educational areas and a sports area, classrooms and other facilities. The open interior courtyards will allow for greater social stimulation of the students.

Under this concept of making the most of the natural advantages of the place and the demands of the tropics, the design has paid particular attention to the fact that the courtyards have good s hade and ventilation.

It has been privileged that the building has independent accesses for its primary and secondary sections, as well as the nursery area and the sports areas, the library, the infirmary, the restaurant, which will allow a better development of the school and student life, as well as the coexistence.

Matteo Barreca | installation | Expo Modii Pavillon

38

Design Phase: Design and Realization Place: Panama City, Panama Year: 2018 The pavilion was installed in the centre of the hall that hosted Expo Modii 2018 inside the Atlapa Center in Panama City to draw attention to public and private spaces and to animate a discussion on the transformations the city was experiencing at the time.

The installation consists of a series of elements: the roof, made up of thousands of strips of paper of different lengths that allow the space to be shaped and create spaces of different heights; the benches, where people can stand and perceive the different nature of the spaces due to the variation in height, on which parts of the City of Panama are engraved, identifying crowded places open to the public and more intimate private spaces; a loudspeaker that continuously emits sounds taken from hours of recordings in the points of the city that have been engraved on the benches, immersing the pavilion visitor in the atmosphere of those places; lights that give body to the sinuous shape of the roof and create different intimacies above the different benches.
