The Hub | Don Gino Rigoldi

Fixed Sun Shading

The inner green space, lined with vegetable patches, play areas, and picnic spots, is shaded by several triangular panels made by i-Mesh.

The functional program for the new center for Comunità Nuova – Don Gino Rigoldi, along with the need to accommodate different activities within the structure, has prompted reflection on how to integrate the new volumes into the area.

The most appropriate planning choice was to allocate each activity to a separate section, capable of meeting the specific requirements as effectively as possible. A covered passageway directly connects the various buildings, forming a continuous ring that serves the dual purpose of enclosing an indoor space, which must also be protected, and establishing a visual and osmotic connection with the surrounding environment. This connection is essential for a community that is truly open to its territory and in constant dialogue with the society within which it lives.

This is a place of meeting and dialogue, a true expression of the humanitarian and social message of Comunità Nuova.
