The building goes along an L-shaped lot and stays within the building limits so it articulates itself in a very a complex shape. Every flats has a patio which guarantees a private relationship with the exterior. The whole structure is a block where everyday spaces are obtained from the volume of the building. The block skin is made by metal sheet coated with zinc and has vertical orientation. The East and the West facades are daubed and painted to underline this particular characteristic.http://www.barrecaelavarra.it/page/architectures/project/housing-sociale-seregno
