MIRA LANZA<br />
2017<br />
revitalizing the industrial site<br />
Info: TU Delft, Public Buildings<br />
Location: Rome, Italy<br />
Program: public area/educational centre / 76 700 m 2<br />
This project was designed within the studio ‘Re_<br />
Claiming Rome’. The objective was to redevelop<br />
abandoned industrial site of Mira Lanza.<br />
Mira Lanza is located in a long-neglected<br />
suburban area, only a few miles from the ancient<br />
heart of Rome.The project aims to connect the area<br />
with both the city and the Tiber river and to propose<br />
a design solution that would be attractive to the<br />
public.<br />
Proposal for the redevelopment of Mira Lanza<br />
consists of three main layers: infrastructure (the grid),<br />
landscape (the park) and architecture (educational<br />
center). Each of them serves the purpose of<br />
reconnecting the area to the city, and together they<br />
form a complex set of spaces (courtyards) in which<br />
visitors experience different ambiences moving from<br />
the upper levels to the river.<br />
THREE LAYERS COMING TOGETHER: GRID / LANDSCAPE / BUILDING<br />
COURTYARDS - ‘VIADUCT’ (GRID)<br />
