In questa tesi, il tema dello spazio collaborativo condiviso viene esplorato attraverso una lente architettonica, con particolare attenzione al tema del benessere. È possibile creare benessere? Come si possono definire queste atmosfere? E sono molte le domande che sorgono. Soffermandosi su esperienze personali, storie e pensieri, la ricerca teorica approfondisce la comprensione dei processi e degli interessi, degli strumenti e degli elementi chiave che generano una certa atmosfera. Tenendo presente questo obiettivo, la ricerca viene ulteriormente sviluppata attraverso una lente architettonica, affrontando l’esperienza degli studenti di architettura nei spazi del campus; il progetto affronta le sfide associate al loro benessere e alla comprensione delle opportunità legate alla progettazione di uno spazio condiviso. Con la rapida espansione del Politecnico di Milano, si presenta l’opportunità di esplorare un nuovo spazio di apprendimento condiviso all’interno del tessuto urbano di Città Studi. L’obiettivo è quello di incoraggiare la riflessione e il dibattito sugli spazi di cui gli studenti hanno bisogno alla luce della loro esperienza e interazione durante la loro vita accademica e sociale. Affrontando con spirito critico le attuali considerazioni sulla parte esperienziale del progetto e propone una nuova aggiunta incentrata sull’esperienza umana. La qualità dell’architettura che fa da sfondo alla vita è il tema al centro di questa tesi di laurea. La ricerca si concretizza nella sperimentazione progettuale che nasce come connubio tra l’espansione di un campus e la creazione di una visione olistica per il quartiere. Per questo motivo, il centro neurologico Carlo Besta è ripensato come uno spazio di apprendimento collaborativo condiviso, mentre il nucleo del progetto è quello di promuovere un’atmosfera che favorisca il benessere degli studenti, dei docenti e degli utenti pubblici a livello di esperienza umana.

Abstract
In this thesis, the topic of shared collaborative space is explored through an architectural lens with a main focus on the topic of well-being. Is it possible to create well-being? how can such atmospheres be defined? and many such questions arise. Dwelling into personal experiences, stories, and thoughts, theoretical research deepens the understanding of processes and interests, instruments, and key elements that generate a certain atmosphere. Keeping this aim in mind the research is further developed through an architectural vision, addressing the experience of architecture students on the campus premises; associated challenges about their well-being, and understanding opportunities affecting the design of a communal space. As the rapid expansion of Politecnico di Milano is occurring, the opportunity is taken here to explore a new shared space for learning within the urban fabric of Citta Studi. It aims to encourage thought and debate regarding the spaces students need in light of their experience and interaction throughout their academic and social lives. Critiquing current considerations on the experiential part of the design while proposing a new addition that is centered on the human experience. The quality of architecture that acts as the backdrop for life to put on its act is essentially a topic that this thesis attempts to discuss. The research is realized in an architectural design form that comes as a marriage between the expansion of a campus and creation of a holistic vision for the neighborhood. For this reason, Carlo Besta Neurological Center, which is currently relocated to Sesto San Giovanni, is re-imagined as a shared collaborative learning space while the core of the project is to foster an atmosphere that promotes the well-being of students, faculty, and the public users on a human experiential level.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
