The property, owned by the Monsummanese Public Assistance, is located in Monsummano Terme Via Mameli, in the central area of the town not far from Piazza Gusti. The building is made up of four floors above ground and a large basement. (used largely for parking except some spaces intended for technical rooms / clearing rooms). On the back there is an area used for parking, at the ends of the same there are technical compartments. The entire building and all outdoor spaces are illuminated by LEDs.

THE ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE

The shape of the land, net of the distances from the borders and spaces necessary for the circulation and parking of the vehicles, was such that by choosing the "regularity", we would have had two options: to create a pleasant building, but giving up several square meters of surface , or make the most of the available spaces and build a clumsy building. None of these options was pleasing to us or to the client and for this reason, we tried to go beyond the regularity of rationalism, also to be able to take full advantage of the conformation of the lot. Plasticity and emotion are the guidelines of our project. The building, on the main front, is characterized by a continuous curve, the dynamism of which is underlined, in the initial part, by the withdrawal of the ground floor and, in the terminal part, by the advancement of the second floor. A glass block, which seems to emerge from the walls, identifies the main entrance and interrupts the continuity of the whole. The windows are enriched with splashes which, by expanding the horizontal dimension, further lighten the image of the new Public Assistance office. On the rear front On the rear front, a superstructure was provided, spaced 1.5 ml from the wall. This artifact, which for now has not been built and perhaps will never be, had the task of interrupting the monotony of the ribbon windows, also fulfilling the dual function of a canopy and a protective element of the facade. The structure should have continued on the side elevation, characterized by a frame, memory of the west elevation, on which the PUBLIC ASSISTANCE logo should have been placed.
