GRZ.0 Final Seminar & Exhibition

Sunday, June 9th, 2019

Former industrial buildings where, through some very simple objects, many religions are practised; gardens where, through an old carpet, an extension of a sitting room is created; a name-less square where, through bottle-caps or ropes, kids can play all together beyond any cultural background. The main square used for car washing; material fences and mental boundaries as an answer to urban fears related to ‘otherness’: migrants, teenagers going to a professional school, political activists.

This is the link to browse through students’ work and this the link to a video summary of the semester.

LONDON AFFORDABLE HOUSING CHALLENGE
Re.Co.De:
Redesigning Contemporary Dwelling


PROJECT AUTHORS*

Massimo Bricocoli
Gennaro Postiglione
Stefania Sabatinelli
Nicola Sirugo

JURY COMMENTARY
Coliving and cohabitation serve to increase density by reorganizing the layouts of existing buildings for more efficient spaces, and to include shared amenities for larger groups of inhabitants. The designer of this project, quoting STAR strategies + Architecture, states: “the real revolution in housing is indoors.” The proposal rearranges the interior layout of a typical london housing block, as the designer claims, to mirror the growing variety of job positions and of family arrangements. The ways in which people organize their urban lives to afford housing “is to be more closely investigated, as this brings along significant changes in terms of housing cultures, patterns of solidarity/community, and socio-spatial organization.” The design offers a selection of flexible interior organizational components – including the bathroom core, the equipped wall fitted with shelving and insulation, and movable partitions. The layout accounts for a mixture of user profiles, from the single adult student, to the elderly couple, to the divorced parent with child. The jury wonders, in what other building typologies can this project be applied?

*The work is a result of and ongoing design studio-based research (at Politecnico di Milano) over the last three years; colleagues involved: Massimo Bricocoli (Urban and Housing Policy), Giovanni Hänninen (Ethno-photography); Rodrigo Pemjean (Architectural Representation); Gennaro Postiglione (Architecture of Interiors) and Stefania Sabatinelli (Urban Sociology).

Residenzialità temporanea a Milano: lo spazio conta

Sunday, February 26th, 2017

 

Seminario 1 marzo

Mercoledì 1 marzo 2017, ore 14.30 Aula Gamma – Politecnico di Milano

PROGETTARE E ORGANIZZARE LA RESIDENZIALITA’ TEMPORANEA
Seminario organizzato nell’ambito del 6° Forum delle Politiche Sociali

Il seminario presenta l’esito di un laboratorio didattico in cui studenti di Architettura e di Urbanistica hanno lavorato congiuntamente sul tema dell’abitare temporaneo a Milano. I cambiamenti economici e sociali hanno impatti significativi sulle condizioni di vita: un mercato del lavoro più flessibile implica per molti mobilità e temporaneità abitativa, mutamenti strutturali e recessione economica aumentano la vulnerabilità di singoli e famiglie anche rispetto alle condizioni abitative, con crescenti difficoltà a sostenere affitti e mutui e un aumento e accelerazione degli sfratti. Enti locali e realtà del terzo settore sono sempre più sollecitati a sviluppare progetti per la residenzialità che siano più appropriati ed efficaci e al tempo stesso poco onerosi. Nel solco del programma ”Residenzialità Sociale Temporanea” promosso dal co­mune di Milano, sono state sviluppate proposte progettuali relative a cinque diversi casi. Gli esiti evidenziano prospettive di innovazione che sollecitano più strette connessioni tra progettazione e gestione die servizi sociali, programmazione e regolazione urbanistica, progettazione architettonica e degli interni.

Stazione Agip got listed

Friday, February 21st, 2014

We just found out that the Stazione di Servizio Agip, the beloved building topic of our 2012 Design Lab, has been officially listed. According to the public authorities – namely the Ministero dei beni e delle attività culturali e del turismo – the building is “of  particularly outstanding historical and artistic interest” and will be now subject to safeguard. The official document stating this important judgement features a short bibliography that includes our Lab-int-2012 as a reference.

It goes without saying that we consider this a huge achievenment for the commitment played out by our students in that project.
