4 photo: Cibic & Partners photo: Cibic & Partners La Rinascente Milan Via Santa Radegonda Milan The redesign of La Rinascente's exterior by Cibic and Partners was aimed at both restoring the department store's famous portico and reinforcing the Rinascente brand ('s largest department store) with a modern, recognizable image As La Rinascente puts it, 'shopping requires inspiration' The designers copied the shape of the existing portico arches for the new shop windows, while making the new entrance hall rectangular, contrasting with the old structure and emphasizing the new symmetrical axis they had introduced The large, well-lit display windows form a new theatrical decor in the portico This ambience has been extended around the corner by introducing a five-metre-high glass wall, backlit by a network of LED lighting that creates a continuous pattern which can be reconfigured to suit the season or special events In the end, not only the store but also fashion capital Milan will profit from this sophisticated shop window Project is public! photo: Cibic & Partners 2007 Supplier Supplier Cibic & Partners Arkilux Color Kinetics La Rinascente Department Store Kirsten_Hannema Monday through saturday: Sunday: Via Santa Radegonda is one of the side streets of the Piazza Duomo, Milan's central square 4

5 photo: Archivio Fuksas photo: Archivio Fuksas New Trade Fair Strada Statale 33 del Sempione Milan The New Trade Fair is not only a big project for the Milan region its dimensions make it one of the biggest buildings in Europe Massimiliano Fuksas conceived the site on the outskirts of the city as a new landscape with its own geography The project is structured by a central axis that connects the service centres, offices and the exhibition halls The whole complex is covered by a vast roof - an undulating lightweight structure, with a surface area exceeding square metres, over 1300 metres long and approximately 32 metres wide Made up of a reticular rhomboidal mesh structure in prefinished steel profiles, it is connected via spherical nodes and covered with laminated glass attached via plates to the profiles below It is supported by 183 steel columns 500 mm in diameter which branch into smaller supporting arms above 12 metres Fuksas derived the form from constant altimetric variations as found in the natural landscape in the form of 'craters', 'waves' and 'dunes' Project is public! 2005 Main designer, Supplier Contractor Supplier Supplier Associate architect Supplier Structural engineer Supplier Contractor Associate architect Building physics consultant Technical engineer Contractor Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas Doriana O Fuksas Ask Romein Astaldi Spa Bemo Systems Carpentieri d'italia Giorgio Martocchia Icom Engineering Mero GmbH & Co Permasteelisa Spa Pizzarotti Spa Ralf Bock Schlaich, Bergermann und Partner Studio Marzullo Srl Vianini Spa Fondazione Fiera Milano Kirsten_Hannema photo: Archivio Fuksas Located in Rho-Pero (on the northwestern outskirts of Milan), along highway SS33 5

9 Casa Rustici Corso Sempione Milan This housing complex in Milan was built by famous fascist architect Giuseppe Terragni He was important for the development of livable and cheap housing in 1930s Casa Rustica is located on Corso Sempione, an inportant thoroughfare to get into Milan's city centre It has got a rooftop garden, to be used by all the building's occupants 1936 Main designer, Giuseppe Terragni Pietro Lingeri Marloes_Faber A 10-minute walk from the famous Parco Sempione 9

10 Palazzo Montecatini Via della Moscova Milan Commissioned to Gio Ponti between 1935 and 1938, this building soon became a symbol of rationalist Milan architecture between the two wars In the shape of an H with a private opening onto Via della Moscova on one floor, it is ideal for offices with its internal layout, furnishings and external aspect working together in perfect harmony Externally, the green marble walls and the standardized iron and aluminium locks annonce the expressive clarity and attention to detail that can also be seen on the inside The complex offers avant-garde, typological solutions (mobile floors with individual work posts) as well as technological ones (controlled heating and inflatable posts), which Ponti took care of paying great attention to detail (from website Yahoo!

11 photo: Nazar Leskiw Duca di Milano Hotel Piazza della Repubblica Milan Designed by postmodernist Aldo Rossi, the Duca di Milano Hotel operates as an annex of the Principe di Savoia Hotel, with which it is linked by a skybridge The façade of Rossi's hotel is made up of red brick and has a linear pattern of windows on a plain surface This stands in stark contrast to its mother building, which has a traditional façade with an abundance of ornaments The interior of the Duca di Milano is more confluent with the Principe's style: the units in the annex are ablaze with regal red fabrics, padded walls, valanced windows, sitting areas, and generous desks that match the Edwardian look of the antique dressers Project is public! 1988 Aldo Rossi Marloes_Faber photo: Nazar Leskiw 11

12 Gallaratese II Housing Via Enrico Falck 37 Milan Located in the city of Milan, the Gallaratese II housing complex has the capacity to house 2400 inhabitants Aldo Rossi designed the complex at the 'Gallaratese Quarter II' to be a self-contained village which was even dubbed a 'Palais social' by its tenants This coordinates with Rossi s philosophy of architecture His view that the primary sources of all architectural content lie in the school, the hospital and the prison is reflected in the use of primary forms, axial orientation and repetitive elements in the façades Gallaratese II is designed with two apparent axes: north-south and east-west These indicate the primary circulation routes of the building as well as guiding the relationships between the building and the rest of the quarter (from website University of Colorado Denver) Public access unknown! 1970 Aldo Rossi Marloes_Faber 'Bonola' is the nearest underground station The gate to the complex is not always opened 12

13 Velasca Tower Piazza Velasca Milan Close to Milan's city centre, looking up, one can notice the presence of an outstanding profile: it is the outline of Torre Velasca, whose symbolic value one is able to guess from a distance The building was designed in the 1950s by a group of Milanese architects called BBPR after their names: Banfi, Belgiojoso, Peressutti and Rogers The Velasca Tower belongs to the first generation of Italian modern architecture, nevertheless keeping itself linked to the Milanese context in which it was born, and relating itself particularly to the cathedral, the city's bell towers and above all to the Sforzesco Castle The tower, with its characteristic 'mushroom' shape and height of 99 metres, sticks out into the city centre skyline, made up of buildings, domes, towers and bell towers Its structure recalls the Lombard tradition of the massive profile of towers and medieval fortresses photo: Benjo Zwarteveen BBPR Marloes_Faber By underground: Piazza Velasca is the nearest stop 13

14 Pirelli tower Piazza Duca d'aosta Milan In 1950 Alberto Pirelli, the president of the Pirelli Company, required that a skyscraper be built in the original area where the first factory was constructed in the 19th century The project was developed by architect Gio Ponti, with the assistance of Pier Luigi Nervi and Arturo Danusso At 1271 meters (417 feet), it is the tallest building in the city and was built of concrete (est 60,000 tons) Construction of the tower began in 1956 in a time that was experiencing an economic boom The tower was to be surrounded by low lying buildings on a hectagonal plot of land Upon its completion in 1958, it became one of the symbols of Milan and of the national economical recovery The building was later sold to the Lombardy region, of which is now the head office Characterized by a bold, structural skeleton, smooth refined curtain wall façades, and tapered sides like the bow of a ship, it was among the first skyscrapers to abandon the customary block form Main designer, Gio Ponti Pier Luigi Nervi the Pirelli Company Marloes_Faber Near Milan Central Station 14

19 photo: Zanini Marco photo: Zanini Marco Breath Building Geox tower via speronari Milan The building is a renovation of a pre-existing building in Torino Street, one of the most important Milanese axes Due to the impossibility to renovate the façade "in style", the studio decided to build a very recognizable landmark without overbearing the context Only the structural frame has been maintained The new facade is composed by a metal frame that supports windows and opaque surfaces The second transpiring skin is composed by perforated plates: it's heat exchanger, solar filter and optical corrector The necessity to solve the problem of congestion and cement jungle has inspired autumnal colour of the skin The corner of the building hosts contemporary artwork that will change periodically Project is public!

24 photo: Giuseppe Maritati photo: Giuseppe Maritati Blend Building Piazza IV Novembre Milan The intervention on a 1960's building, is meant to be a clear urban narration of the city, thanks to the reflecting monuments, the multiple contexts and the sky on a façade obtained from the combination of three different glasses (float, mirror, extremely clear) The basement is reinforced by the "piercing" action of a continuous reflecting shelter, emphasizing the dynamic perception of the outline and the external space, whereas the foyer system defines the "threshold" between external-public space and internal-private space A new skin, with a changing geometry, will define the way, that from the foyer leads to the different distribution systems, transforming with its simple "plug-in", space and atmospheres photo: Giuseppe Maritati Floor area/size m² Services engineer Contractor 5+1AA AI Engineering Zoppoli & Pulcher Generali Properties AlfonsoFemia 24
