CONCEPTS
Flexibility of workspace was the main concept for design. Office space was designed according to the company’s requirement.
Collaboration spaces, focus workstations, different spaces for team work and spaces for recharge of the employees and relaxation areas were all considers in the design of the space.
Different types of work zones gives the employee the freedom to choose where they want to work.
Various furniture for group activities, different size of meeting rooms and open meeting rooms.
Quiet zones towards the right side of the building, vibrate zones towards the left side and near the existing void were designed.
Vibrant zones: Reception, breakout, meeting spaces, game room lockers and wardrobe.
Collaboration zones: informal meeting rooms, brain storm space, collaboration space, work space and phone boots
Quiet zones, enclosed offices and work spaces.
RECEPTION
Wooden joinery is created by a natural look of lyon ash. Reception desk is made of unilin carrara frosted white for the uniqueness of reception desk as the first point of view of the office space that is placed in front of the entrance. Other fabrics for furniture’s were selected according to the colour scheme.
KITCHENETTE
Use of orange colour for the service areas that brings more life and at the same time matches with the brand identity of the company gives a perfect contrast with grey and wood used in joinery and chairs.
PET FELT dark green acoustic panels from quadrat were used to give a contrast and vibrant look to the orange floor.
All the material and furniture’s were tested in the place by client and had been pre-selected and ordered before meeting with our client in the office space.
Fabric samples, colour samples and material samples were shipped to our client to secure them with their choices.
Same colour of laminated oak wood was used for joinery and reception area and other wooden furniture in the office. Different acoustic fabrics for the breakout area to avoid noise and sound transition to other spaces were chosen.
WORKSTATION
Dark orange from Quadrat remix products were used and installed as an aquatic panel in the work zone.

The majority of the world’s GHG emissions come from cities. Initiated by the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group and made possible thanks to the support of Climate KIC, Reinventing Cities is a global competition that seeks to transform underutilized sites through sustainable and community-focused projects to drive decarbonised and resilient urban regeneration. Represented site by C40 competition had the aims to achieved as follow with design of 2500 m2 student residence for Bocconi university and 1500 m2 for staff residentials.
• Building energy efficiency and supply of clean energySustainable materials management and circular economy
• Resilience and adaption
• Green growth and smart Cities
• Biodiversity, urban revegetation and agriculture
Within this neighborhood the Milanese approach of considering a courtyard is highly employed.
DESIGN PROCESS
Articulating S/V ratio and energy consumption regarding the changes. We started from a 0,45 ratio. Arriving to 0,58 we noticed an increase of 6% of the EUI.
SOCIAL AND ISOLATION MODE
To achieve a better solution for interaction, common spaces along side student rooms was designed.
MAXIMUM INTERACTION
To have more interaction among students to enjoy their everyday life, connecting spaces vertically and horizontally was introduced.

COURTYARD
Serio residence offers to the residents the choices of privacy complemented with the connections. To promote a sense of belonging and community around the private court space, we designed communal activities. Shaded gardens are adopted within the private court. Seating are also oriented towards a central focal point to remind the occupants to interact with the residents even while they enjoy private time.
Thus the students and the Milanese families may meet, communicate and interact around the very object that sort to divide them. Now after the initial interaction over the canal residents are further granted the opportunity to meet on the canal.

SERIOHEIGHT
To better understand the behavior of our building and the incidence of transparent elements, we first studied the south façade and after the north one. In order to understand the best window/floor ratio for our energetic performance we ran many simulations adding and modifying windows on the south façade, starting from a minimum value of 0,125 (given from the Italian law) and arriving to a 0,5 W/F ratio.
The best energetic result is reached with a W/F ratio of 0,125, U value of 0,6 W/m2K and g value of 0,45.
he results show that, in terms of EUI (Energy Use Intensity) the best result is obtained with the south windows (U=0,6 W/ m2K and g=0,45) and a W/F ratio of 0,125. Meanwhile, in terms of heating, the best result is obtained with a W/F ratio of 0,25 and the same thermal properties.

University College Dublin - Future Campus was an International design competition managed by Malcolm Reading Consultants. University College Dublin (UCD) is Ireland’s Offering a strongly diverse mix of academic disciplines, UCD attract 30,000 students for over 120 countries annually. The project is in two parts:
1) An Entrance Precinct Masterplan, 2) Centre for Creative Design building.
The Entrance Precinct Masterplan covers an area of 23.8 ha, within which the University sees a potential to accommodate up to 335,000 sq m of new development. The first building to be delivered within the Entrance Precinct Masterplan is the 8,000 sq m Centre for Creative Design.
Design of external spaces varies according to the location and relation to the building. These spaces vary from open to close, private and social, simple and complex. Different types of activities such as open air amphitheater, spots for individuals to study and be relaxed, gathering spots for students of each faculty that has visual connection with other faculties and all the campus.
1. ENTRANCE PLAZA
2.OPEN AIR WORKSHOPS
3.MAIN LAKE
4.SHUTTLE BUS STOP
5.GATHERING PLAZA
6.IRISH GARDEN WALKWAY
7.OPEN AIR THEATER
8.COVERED WALKWAY

The urban concept was shaped around two main ideas, one was the existing social hubs (lakes) and the other is old and historical buildings and landscapes in the campus.
A historical Irish garden which dates back to 18 century called secret garden and many more historical buildings. In this masterplan people will experience the past, feature and the present.
Considering main social cores(two waterbodies) and connecting these two with the entrance to make them visible and generate people flow.

MASTERPLAN
Pushing the buildings together to make a neighborhood for students and draw them together not to push them away from each other, to feel the closeness, build up a social trust and to have a denser and happier space was the reason to connect all of the green spaces of each faculty together and make their social life alive and active.This way we can turn a place into space and make a location feel like home and make communities out of faculties that can built up families and feeling of trust and belonging among students.
Parameterization of Bridge connection
The site access routes change after the intervention of the masterplan. These are the main routes of access to our project area and pave way to the main building that connects city to the site and make a memorable vision for cars and pedestrians passing along the university.

LOAD CALCULATIONS
Typical floor Primary Beams Load Calculations. To begin the design of the structure, the variable and permanent loads are first calculated. They are defined as follows; Permanent loads (G) are constant during the service life of the building. The calculation consists of;
•Permanent loads (G1): self-weight of the structural elements
•Permanent loads (G2): self-weight of the non-structural elements
•Variable loads (Q) change over the duration of the building’s service life.
•Live loads: self-weight of the equipment or people present within the building
•Snow loads: self-weight of snow based on the specified region and applied to the external roofing element.
•Wind loads: pressure and suction values are calculated for both the longitudinal and transversal sides of the building

taking into account the Annual Sun Exposure, rooms exposed to southeast may be affected by glare, as the ASE value may suggets.
On the north and east facades as we have diffused light and in order to filter light, we used vertical fins.
On the south facade to reduce the radiation alowing inside the building and to avoid the heat gains on the facade system, full facade casing with offset has been conavoid consideredsidered
Taking into consideration all the strategies we were able to reduce the consumption of the building from 117 kWh/m2/yera to 27 kWh/m2/year.
