Other Projects by Alessandro Calvi Rollino Architetto
PROJECT FOR A PRIMARY SCHOOL IN FANO, ITALY.
AWARDS:
World Architecture Community Awards, Third Cycle, 2009, Nomination / shortlisted project.
> DESIGN TEAM:
Alessandro Calvi Rollino, architect
Micaela Tolio, collaborator
> Sense of Place, Sustainable Architecture, Architecture & Pedagogy, Matter and Color
This project involves the realization of a Primary School as part of a larger School complex in Fano, Italy. A thorough analysis of the context, where Nature spans from the northern hills to the southern agricultural landscape of the Metauro valley, led to an almost horizontal development of the buildings so that the characteristic profile of the hills stands out. The overall spaces of the Primary School have the typical colors and textures of the place: plaster and bricks with neutrals and muted hues, related to the soil and stones. Materials also have a strong response to the sense of touch. Each classroom has its own peculiar color for doors and windows so that children can easily recognize the classroom they belong to. Spaces can be colorful, light, and easy to grasp, never dull, with features like waiting areas, sitting places, ramps, balconies, walls, and hidden nooks where children can retreat, allowing them to fully develop their physical and psychological abilities through different bodily reactions to the architecture.
