As part of a program converting a former factory hemp as a new downtown Migliarino, the project proposes a youth hostel in the building 510 m2. Site location is central with respect to the tour taking place during the summer, because of its proximity to the River Po Delta Natural Park, but he had as a budget constraint € 270,000 including furniture. Therefore, the management aspects, both energy and economic savings were the main concerns.
The project was intended as a passive machine, Which converge the natural air flow in order to obtain climate benefits, While the distribution system and layout were designed to morphological minimize materials and technologies used. This allows elastic capacity increases during the spring and summer season. The reception and staff are located on the ground floor, And second level appears as a large single space with windows on one side.
Four rooms for 2-3 people, bathroom and stairs are arranged in 2 levels on the other side. This organization generates a volume, to be compact and well defined, it can be easily conditioned with traditional systems. In contrast, in the main space, the air is based on passive ventilation Facilitated by the position of the windows on the north side and 2 towers on the roof vent. The impossibility of dividing the space into more units to keep the unity of light and air direction, suggests an alternative solution for Bedrooms: autonomous cells of fabric arranged like a campsite that work with your HVAC system itself independent.
The entire system is located under a wooden platform that acts as a connector of all cells and produces a difference in height that marks the transition from one space to another (rooms and common area). The changes in the scope platform leading to different situations of rest and relaxation, Cozy corners for reading or surfing the internet. Despite the multitude of applications, space is still flowing, while plasticity is enhanced by mono chromatic elements introduced and furniture.
