Concept and total distribution system
1st floor plan of the block and courtyard scheme
To live means to also feel at home even
when you don't have a house. The fluidity
of the social bonds mirrors itself in the
necessity to reconsider the social
gathering places. It is for such motive
that also a temporary residence can be
an occasion to experiment the sense of
belonging in the contemporary times.
The project finds its departing point in a
gesture, in a vision that tries to engrave a
new path inside the De Sonnaz
ex-military block. The image that forms
the background of the project iter it's the
dragon, that acts as a sort of magnetic
field for ideas: it gathers them and it
distributes them articulating spaces,
colors, volumes and dimensions where
to live, of a possibility of living that
overcomes the usefullness to land on the
thresholds of new. What is new it is the
concept of the block, thanks to the
declination of the distributive elements in
different possible meanings: staircases,
ramps, elevators, slides, nets.
The extreme version of such concept is
translated in random movements that
produce different levels of privacy from
the architectural level, and on urban level
a trail of flakes that drives the user
toward the city infrastructures and
center.
Why wiRed? The flow of connections
produced by the action on the block
produces a series of movements in
which each prepares the conditions for
that following. This connection of spaces
departs in the only point of access, the
iconic element of entrance that ties city
and the block.
