Pioltello – Preliminary design for a masterplan

Pioltello – Preliminary design for a masterplan

“Telluric movement” is the essential gestural generator of the project.

Existing natural structures are the engine of this movement – water on one side and a park on the other – which seem to interpenetrate, creating a sequence of ripples in the landscape.

The result of these tensions is a sequence of parallel “fingers”, which rise and fall as “waves” of various shapes to contain the various functions provided by the plan. Promoted by Pirelli Real Estate, the intervention has a cost of 110 million Euros and covers an area of 82,000 m2.

Le preesistenze naturali sono il motore di questo movimento; l’acqua da un lato e il parco dall’altro sembrano compenetrarsi, creando una sequenza di increspature del terreno.

Risultato di queste tensioni è la sequenza di una serie di “dita” parallele, che si alzano e si abbassano come “onde” di diversa forma a contenere le diverse funzioni previste dal piano. Promosso da Pirelli Real Estate, l’intervento ha un costo di 110 milioni di euro e occupa una superficie di 82 mila mq.
