Symbiosis Greenhouse

Symbiosis Greenhouse

The project completes a block composed of two other built components that perimeter the block. The proposal articulates a dual attitude towards the context. On one hand, it presents itself as architecture volumetrically in formal relation to the existing structures; on the other, it aims to be a building that breaks away from the solid characterization of the block, which appears closed and massive even when glazed. The architecture is characterized by a "classic" Milanese – Muzio-style approach, divided into two parts with a double giant order (4+1 levels) in the lower part and a denser rhythm in the five upper levels. It is in this ambiguity between materiality and lightness, transparency and urban character, that a building asserts itself with determination, aiming for a reduction of "weight" within the block despite its significant size. The relationship with the central park is important, where the transparencies face and reflect.
