Renovation of the old city of Ala

 

The central element is the urban space, a single fluid environment under the new cover that strengthens the continuum between Via Nuova and Piazza Cantore.

The goal is to create a new space from the present situation, a project without affecting the town is able to give back to the community a different environment, that can change the way it is lived.
Architecture at the service of all, at the service of citizens and tourists, both for everyday life and for the historic and culturally important events.

In this regard, the internal courtyards of the buildings that overlook Via Nuova are reinterpreted going to change the balance between public and private, with commercial activities that can take on a particular importance within public events such as inaugurations, exhibitions, exhibitions and evenings gala.
The steel structure is developed in height to accommodate the extra space, with sinuous forms that rise upwards. At the base of the broad stone benches serve as yet, by soldering the ground the metal bus shelter.
Finally, the cover glass is laid on the structure, like a light sail shelter of the spaces below but without depriving them of natural light
