NEW AUDITORIUM
of Fiumicino, a redesign of a former power plant
For this design competition, organized by the City of Fiumicino, we formed a working group with Alvisi-Kirimoto studio and Arup Chicago.
Having already had the opportunity to work on the existing building, I started from a very strong base of analytical knowledge of the site and its problems. It was extremely educational to work on an auditorium and conference halls project with a very experienced company in this field such as Massimo Alvisi’s studio.
The idea behind the building is that of a large central hall of about 900 seats situated between two large glass walls. In the lower floor there are two halls with 108-seat rooms each, the foyer and a lounge bar, as well as various service areas.
My colleagues and I have developed the technical drawings using the Revit platform, which allowed us to meet very short delivery deadlines and to have a more effective collaboration with ARUP studio. Apart from this, I was also involved in the production of renders and their post-production.
