Questione di spazi, al centro ci sono le persone.
La casa è sempre meno specializzata. Gli spazi e le soluzioni distributive devono interpretare usi diversi nel corso della giornata e delle stagioni.
In base alla richiesta del committente ho cercato di definire uno spazio di vita che fosse variabile durante l’arco della giornata. L’appartamento è composto da una cucina, una zona giorno, due bagni e due camere da letto.
Un elemento di arredo fisso funge da guardaroba e da armadiatura, dividendo lo spazio in diversi ambienti. Questo elemento puo’ essere fruito da entrambi i lati, in base alle esigenze.
Lo spazio centrale del corridoio è l’elemento d’unione tra la zona giorno e la zona notte.

A Manifesto for Smart Citizens
(…)
Smart Citizens:
- Will take responsibility for the place they live, work and love in;
- Value access over ownership, contribution over power;
- Will ask forgiveness, not permission;
- Know where they can get the tools, knowledge and support they need;
- Value empathy, dialogue and trust;
- Appropriate technology, rather than accept it as is;
- Will help the people that struggle with smart stuff;
- Ask questions, then more questions, before they come up with answers;
- Actively take part in design efforts to come up with better solutions;
- Work agile, prototype early, test quickly and know when to start over;
- Will not stop in the face of seemingly huge boundariesbarriers;
- Unremittingly share their knowledge and their learning, because they know this is where true value comes from.
