Bright open space, designed for maximum employment flexibility

The new residential and semi-residential center will welcome adults with mild or medium physical and intellectual disabilities.


The objectives and cultural principles that inspired the project concerned the creation of a protected building capable of guaranteeing: safety and psycho-physical well-being for all users; expandability and flexibility of the internal spaces to adapt to multiple activities and the type and size of groups of users.


The building is set on a raised platform and consists of a floor of approximately 6.00 meters in height. with a flat roof pierced by cloisters and skylights to allow maximum natural light to penetrate the interiors. Daytime activities take place within a bright open space, designed for maximum employment flexibility. The residential units are divided into 4 units of 6 rooms each. The technological, power and energy production systems (which also include the provision of photovoltaic and solar thermal panels) are located within an external volume along the northern border which, at the same time, contributes to the environmental protection of the area.
