Development of architectural design of an urban market in Turin, Italy
"Architecture Construction Forms" atelier of Master Architecture Construction City, PoliTO

Focused on the revitalization of an urban market in a square in Turin, the work involved a study of structures in compression - vaults - making calculations and computerized analyzes. The developed project sought the use of space at different times, being an open market during the day and a socializing place with food kiosks at night. The unevenness of the terrain allowed the creation of two different levels, used to organize the infrastructure necessary for the market, but also to recreate the square. The covered area is organized in a "U" shape around the lower square, with a coverage in structure in compression in three layers of bricks.
