Hello! My name is Ana Flavia Piva Panzenhagen, and I’m a 27-yearold Brazilian/Italian citizen from the south of Brazil with a broad international background. I received my master’s degree from Politecnico di Milano in Italy. During my 7 years of experience in architecture (2015-2022), I’ve worked in various positions, ranging from architectural design to research, always seeking to learn from each of them. I crave to know unique perspectives, ways of living and working, and how other cultures can enrich my own. These experiences have rendered me a reliable, determined, adaptable, and autonomous person who grows with every new challenge. I would love to continue to broaden my horizons in architecture by having the chance to collaborate with you.

Informal Intramuros

Type | Academic (Thesis), 2022 Advisors | Barbara Bogoni, F. Cancelliere Location | Intramuros, Philippines University | Politecnico di Milano Partner | Miguel Francisco Sebastian III

Intramuros is a walled city from Spanish colonial times in the center of Manila, Philippines. Its history is aligned with the country, and its glorious past has shifted to that of destruction and abandonment. Today, it is considered a tourist attraction, albeit having informal settlements within its walls. Whilst the government plans for their removal, this thesis proposes the opposite: the integration of these citizens in the planning and development of the old town, knowing that their removal is the removal of Intramuros’ soul.

At the core of the city, a social housing is proposed, creating a more inclusive

and accessible Intramuros, which aligns its heritage towards its residents. Taking inspiration from the existing community, the residential complex aims to be vibrant and flexible. For this purpose, the base of the project is modularization, not only on the floor plan, but also on the facade: the residents can choose from different residential and commercial modules and different closures to create their perfect living space. This mix of modules creates a ground floor that is well connected to the residents and to the city through its functions and aesthetics, inspired by the surroundings.

Informal Intramuros

Type | Academic (Thesis), 2022 Advisors | Barbara Bogoni, F. Cancelliere Location | Intramuros, Philippines University | Politecnico di Milano Partner | Miguel Francisco Sebastian III

The second part of the thesis of Informal Intramuros is the transformation of an abandoned site within the city into a social space for its community.

The public park evolves in between a standing facade from the colonial period and the fortifications of Intramuros.

Aiming to reconnect this land with its surroundings, the open space is articulated through a series of axes that cross it both horizontally and vertically, made by cutting the existing facade and by placing new vertical connections in the form of platforms, ramps and bridge leading to the top of the fortifications.

A bamboo structure that follows the rhythm of the facade runs along the facade, creating spaces in different levels and marking the footprint of the old building that once stood there.

This structure continues until the end of the site to create a shelter for the

food stalls, placed as a great attractor at the beginning of the park. On the opposite side, a library connected to the bamboo structure stands also as a point of reference and entry.

The same grid as the structure is used to organize the functions throughout the park, distributed and variated to create vibrance: playgrounds, open gyms, exhibition areas, an information center, water features, chess-playing areas, a basketball and badminton court, table tennis area, toilets, seating spaces are scattered throughout the site.

With this project, we symbolically go beyond the facade that serves as a memory of colonial times by cutting doorways and gateways. We invite Filipinos to pass through these walls and come alive within a park designed for them, making Intramuros more accessible, activated and alive.

Cultural Rescue: a new context to dramatic arts*

Cultural Rescue

Type | Academic (Thesis), 2018 Advisor | Leandro Manenti Location | Porto Alegre, Brazil University | UFRGS

The Porto Alegre Festival “In Scene” is responsible for bringing the performing arts of the city into the world’s spotlight and it proves, with its success of 25 editions, that cultural productions finds its space between the population. In contrast, superior theatrical education suffers: the Dramatic Arts Departament of the Federal University, which could be a national reference such as the Festival, lacks the facilities that its rigorous program requires. Within this context, independent theater groups demand public spaces for the realization of its activities that do not exists in the city.

These three complementary groups compose the frame of the performing arts of the city.

It is in this context that a proposition for a complex of dramatic arts encompassing this three agents must be understood: a combat against amnesia, neglect, and governmental disinterest. The site chosen to shelter this complex has its valuable historical edification abandoned to the mercy of intemperisms that slowly transforms it into ruins. The Chaves Barcelos Palace, a cultural heritage of the State, made by the great architect Theo Wiederspahn, is located in the Historical Center of the city. It is important to call attention to the local culture and arts. I intended to do that by the reborn of a precious good through the implementation of a program that also requires its valorization.

Tacloban Community Center

Tacloban Community Center Type | Academic, 2020 Advisor | Manlio Mazzon, Adriana Granato Location | Tacloban, Leyte, Philippines University | Politecnico di Mialno Group | Miguel Francisco Sebastian III, Maria Paula Villa, Vivian Camila Bolivar

The Philippines is a tropical country that is frequently visited by strong storms throughout the year. This often leads affected areas to be devastated by these typhoons, needing to recover and rebuild.

Tacloban, Leyte was selected as the site for the final application for the course where sustainable measures and construction methods are incorporated into the design.

Bamboo was selected as the primary material in constructing the community center. Using variations of whole bamboo

poles and laminated bamboo sheets, the end-goal was to produce a zero-energy building that is easily replicable and readily available to locals. Following climate responsive design principles, the building integrates vernacular bamboo architecture with modified traditional construction methods.

This project serves as a formal research on the viability of modular typhoonresilient buildings that can be easily constructed and would serve any community in the event of natural calamities in the future.

University and City Pavilion in Mantova

34

University and City Pavilion

Type | Academic, 2020 Advisor | B. Bogoni, Eduardo Souto de Moura Location | Mantova, Italy University | Politecnico di Mialno Group | Miguel Francisco Sebastian III

Piazza d’Arco has a rich and unique history of its own, changing with the centuries and embodying the identity of Mantova. Adjacent to the piazza is the Politecnico di Milano campus. The task for the project was to design a pavilion that caters to the needs of the university but is also open to the community as a public space.

By researching and applying the rich history of the area, the proposed pavilion embodies the past while fully catering to the needs of present times. The approach chosen was to embody a modern character that follows the axes of all surrounding buildings. This allows the design to have a unique identity

while still respecting the rest of the piazza: it is a pure and transparent volume, so as to contrast the building of the university, closed to the inside.

The structure itself, floating above the water and the void of the urban space, tell about its aim: it’s open not only to the university, but also to the city itself.

The University Pavilion has an auditorium, two classrooms, an exhibition area, a cafeteria, and an underground parking facility. Public spaces were generously provided to ensure that the students of Politecnico di Milano and the people of Mantova can integrate and interact within the piazza and its beautiful history.

Palazzetto dello Sport

Type | Professional, 2020 Company | NIMI Studio Location | Rome, Italy

This project was designed during my internship for NIMI Studio, an Italian architectural firm in Volta Mantovana (MN), Lombardy. It consists of a feasibility study for a Sports Center in Rome, Italy. I partook in the creation of the design and composed all the documentation on ArchiCAD, with post-production in Adobe Illustrator.

The renders were made by the main architect with post-production in Adobe Photoshop made by me.

Located on the outskirts of the city, in a residential district, the Palace of Sports gives a new life to an undeveloped terrain next to a High school. The

development of the site foresees the creation of a Palace of Sports with an open area that on a second phase will be developed into a Technological park and a Parking lot. The infrastructure of the Sports Center counts with the main sports field, more than 1800 seats on bleachers, locker rooms, a clubhouse, a gym, and a climbing wall.

Another portion is dedicated to the partner WeArena, a network of Digital Theme Parks of eSports, gaming, virtual and augmented reality games. Once constructed, the Palazzo dello Sport will be a pole for technology and sports in Rome, able to give a new life to its area.

Garden of Hotel Gabrielli

48

Black House

Type | Professional, 2021 Company | The Empire Location | Venice, Italy

The garden of the Hotel Gabrielli Sandwirth has an extension of about 600 square meters and its existence is testified since 1808 in an area previously occupied by houses belonging to the Morosini family. The garden is not the result of a unitary design but of a series of changes that have taken place over time, as evidenced by its geometry and the heterogeneity of the flooring.

The main objective of the redesign is to establish a clear and unitary layout that can refine the existing character of the garden while improving its use

and legibility, allowing flexible use of the spaces during the different hours of the day and seasons. In this sense the main moves would be the removal of the central longitudinal pathway, transforming it into the main axis of symmetry of the new design; the redesign of the side longitudinal pathways so that the side flowerbeds are enlarged; the redefinition of the areas close to the canal and the hotel services so that from bare elements of passage they become new central elements.

Upwards!

Type | International wokshop, 2021 Advisor | Alisia Tognon,Gerardo Semprebon Location | Alpine Pastures, Italy University | Politecnico di Milano Group | Miguel Sebastian, Görkem Taskin, Zhang Jieyu

The two-week workshop proposed the design of a transportable shelter for the use of transhumant shepherds on the alpine pastures, addressing issues such as the fragility of tradition, landscape, and heritage.

With the intangible heritage of transhumance at risk of disappearing, the transportable shelter is seen as a catalyst for change to address the fragility of the landscape, tradition, and profession.

The essence of the alpine tradition is based on an architecture of necessity, simplicity, efficiency, and nothing in excess. Contemporary architecture can still have the same approach but have different methods and technology. Merging the past, the present,

and the idea of the future is central to the approach to address the needs of the actors and to help transhumance transform.

The concept behind the shelter is that of the reason why the shepherd goes to the pastures: for the livestock itself.

His life is dedicated to herding, and his welfare is secondary. Therefore, the shelter was thought to suffice the basic needs of the shepherd while providing the goats with maximized care and attention. The traditional wooden shelter is juxtaposed with modern metal A-frames and mesh fabric to have this dialogue between past, present, and future within a compact architectural design.

Gallery of (Re)existence

Type | Competition, 2019 Location | Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Plataform | Projetar.org Group | Thaís Gerhardt, Stephanie Cerioli, Mariana Samurio, Natalia Zaffari

The Palace São Cristóvão, a historic and architectural landmark, which housed the National Museum in Rio de Janeiro, had its narrative interrupted in 2018 when consumed by a fire. From the ashes, the memory resists.

A temporary gallery for the Museum aims to save the remaining collection, continue the research, preserve and value the history of our country. The Gallery of (Re)existence, thus, rises as a space of survival to the Museum. A space of memory, to remember the past, but also of hope, to think of the future.

The Museum, neglected, called for help.

In the center of the new gallery a smoke signals the warning that the fire should not be forgotten. From it flows a stream of water, symbolizing the passage of time, reaching the outer limits of the building and pointing towards the Palace, opening the way to a new - and conscious - future.

Surrounding the inner courtyard, vol-

umes are arranged in an U shape in the same orientation as the Palace’s original courtyard, creating an environment of reflection and contemplation. The main volume shelters the exhibition, which is divided in two, on a cohesive narrative that reminds the visitors of the past, present and future of the Museum. One enters on the first volume and is reminded of the history of Brazil and of the Palace. Cutting the volume is the water line, forcing the path towards the inner courtyard before reentering the second volume, containing the remaining collection of the museum.

The volumes are structured by a metalic frame and raised by means of a platform, adapting to the terrain and to the temporary condition of the gallery. A tensioned textile membrane ties the volumes together, forming a cohesive translucent architectonic piece, contrasting the image of the Palace.
