The project is based on the The “Tur(i)nto green” competition, which is aimed at transforming the previous industrial area, South Mirafiori, into an agriculture based community. This community, designed for low income people,younger generation and immigrants, will provide Turin with a new model of urban life. It will become part of an agricultural urban system,and be integrated with the adjacent farms situated on the outskirts of the city. In the design process, we make an effort to deal with the operative grounds instead of just designing the houses. With a careful research of Urban agriculture, we create spaces for agriculture as well as the related activities and services. The process of agriculture will be integrated with other sustainable aspects: waste, water and enegry. All these aspect act together to operate this sustainable community. At the same time, through the application of ICT(informationi communication technology)system, we are able to make the food production and consumption cycle more efficient, habitants could gain easier accesses to the information they need. For the layout of the masterplan, our approch has a psycho-social dimension. We priliminaryly shaped the open spaces of the public realm, tried to connect the community life with nature, later we defined an open space system which is as rich a hierarchy as possible. The arragement of the dwelling clusters shows the consideration of the identity of the community and the sensation of belongingness, a feeling of home, which is very important for these immigrants. The project is interesting not only for its form and visual appeal, which is never the less considerable, but also for the new lifestyles we proposed and the rich variety of experiences we would offer.
Il progetto si basa sul concorso "Tur(i)nto green", che mira a trasformare l'area di Mirafiori in una comunita basata sull' agricolture. Questa community è per le persone a basso reddito o disoccupati e gli immigrati. Sarà il principale quartiere produzione alimentare della città, e la comunità sostenibile principale di Torino. Nel processo di progettazione, l'obiettivo e di affrontare gli aspetti gestionali e non solo la progettazione delle case. Con un'attenta ricerca di agricoltura urbana, creiamo spazi per l'agricoltura, e per le relative attività e servizi. Il processo di integrazione dell'agricoltura con il trattamento dei rifiuti, trattamento delle acque e la generazione di energia sono tutti aspetti che agiscono insieme per rendere questa comunità sostenibile. Allo stesso tempo, attraverso l'applicazione del sistema ICT(tecnologia di comunicazione informazioni), siamo in grado di rendere la produzione alimentare e il ciclo di consumo più efficienti, gli abitanti possono ottenere un facili e accesso alle informazioni di cui hanno bisogno. Per il layout del masterplan, il nostro approccio ha una dimensione psico-sociale. Abbiamo in primoluogo conformato gli spazi aperti della sfera pubblica, cerchiamo di collegare la vita comunitaria con la natura, in seguito definiamo un sistema di spazi aperti, che è ricco di una gerarchia possibile. La combinazione cluster per l'abitazione mostra una attenzione per l'identità e la sensazione di appartenenza, una sensazione di casa, che è molto importante per questi immigrati. Il progetto si concentra non solo sulla forma e impatto visivo, che non è mai di secondaria importanza, ma anche per la ricchezza delle possibili esperienze che vorremmo offerire.

Abstract
The project is based on the The “Tur(i)nto green” competition, which is aimed at transforming the previous industrial area, South Mirafiori, into an agriculture based community. This community, designed for low income people,younger generation and immigrants, will provide Turin with a new model of urban life. It will become part of an agricultural urban system,and be integrated with the adjacent farms situated on the outskirts of the city. In the design process, we make an effort to deal with the operative grounds instead of just designing the houses. With a careful research of Urban agriculture, we create spaces for agriculture as well as the related activities and services. The process of agriculture will be integrated with other sustainable aspects: waste, water and enegry. All these aspect act together to operate this sustainable community. At the same time, through the application of ICT(informationi communication technology)system, we are able to make the food production and consumption cycle more efficient, habitants could gain easier accesses to the information they need. For the layout of the masterplan, our approch has a psycho-social dimension. We priliminaryly shaped the open spaces of the public realm, tried to connect the community life with nature, later we defined an open space system which is as rich a hierarchy as possible. The arragement of the dwelling clusters shows the consideration of the identity of the community and the sensation of belongingness, a feeling of home, which is very important for these immigrants. The project is interesting not only for its form and visual appeal, which is never the less considerable, but also for the new lifestyles we proposed and the rich variety of experiences we would offer.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
