CASTELLO DI AGLIE

// PROJECT: SERRA BIANCO & SERRA VERDE

// RESTORATION PROJECT

// SUPERVISED BY: EMANUELE MOREZZI

In this project, me and my teammates worked on the restoration and re-functioning of ''Sera bianca'' and ''Sera verde''. At first, we analyzed all aspects of our work area, for example; ceiling types, floor coverings, window types etc. As a result, the function we found most appropriate in the re-functioning of this area was the permanent and temporary exhibition areas. We were determined not to give functions that would physically destroy them. These exhibition spaces would reflect both innovative and traditional approaches to this space.

We were very excited by the idea of using the codes of digital art to use historical buildings as canvas. The fact that different artists come here and handle the interior of the building in a different way each time will be both intriguing and will make this side of the city more interesting. For "Serra verde", we thought that a permanent exhibition that shows what kind of plants will grow in this environment in the past and in the future, which preserves its own identity, would always work here.

The plants grown in the existing soil in Serra Verde were rearranged with existing plants (lemon, orange etc.) in the first step.
