A restoration and redevelopment project becomes the chance to bring the Gabelli School back to its splendor. A delicate, high-precision procedure that aims at recovering and enhancing the basics of the Pizzigoni method. But there will also be room for new functions and a new spatial configuration based on how the building is used throughout the day. All this without ever neglecting people’s wellbeing and comfort, thanks to the use of active and passive energy strategies.
This project will be fully sustainable even from a social point of view, as it will involve the local population and launch a participatory planning process to return this school to the city of Belluno and its citizens. More importantly, it will also give a new image to the building, making it a true icon and a model for the schools of the future.
