Villa on the hills of Monsummano Terme
The project proposal aims at the reorganization and building and functional recovery of an area located in a tree-lined hill in Monsummano Terme (identified by the new Urban Planning Tool in the EA2 area) through a unitary solution that involves the demolition of a property, which has having lost its testimonial value, a former irrecoverable farmer due to the poor static conditions, which will be replaced by a new eco-sustainable building with low environmental impact. The project addresses two main issues: - the search for the evolution of the urban role of a representative civil architecture, capable of witnessing tradition in its relationship with contemporary transformations, therefore continuity in tradition combined with innovation. - The organization of spaces as an expression of the condition of contemporary man, in search of "a sustainable life", to signify the possibility of building a building, limiting as much as possible the impact on the surrounding environment. The goal was to design a completely autonomous building, as an example of a sustainable building integrated into the territory, a single-storey building with a green roof, such as to blend in with the hill, as if it were a step. An attempt was made to achieve a high housing and ecological standard, not only through the insertion of alternative and renewable energy sources (photovoltaic etc ...) but also through the spatial and functional conformation of the building itself which is divided into two functional areas joined by solar greenhouse that acts as a "mechanism" of distribution and connection.
