Palazzina - restoration of the Caimi Art & Cultural Center

The concept wants to underline and amplify the features and peculiarities of each room. They will be a sequence of locations, different in geometry, natural or artificial light, materials and colors, and will form an architectural promenade along the whole building.

Laboratorio Permanente completed the renovation of an early XX century Milanese building. These spaces are conceived as a flexible sequence of rooms, different in geometry, natural or artificial light, materials and colours, to accommodate several different cultural activities.
The concept indeed wants to underline and amplify the features and peculiarities of each room that creates an architectural promenade along the whole building.
To express the full architectural potential of the building and to solve all the critical structural, systemic and aesthetic issues, the renovation project includes different interlaced restoration philosophies: the historical, philological and scientific restoration. These three different approaches define the adaptive reuse as general philosophy of the project.
