Hub

The heart of the campus: the plaza, the offices and the conference hall. The masterplan keeps them close so that the work and the meeting share the same ground.

  1. 01

    Main Plaza

    Verified

    The masterplan calls it the Main Plaza and defines it as the principal social space: greenery, trees, seating, water, shade, pedestrian links, a bar and room for events. It has to work on a day when nothing is scheduled.

    Offices

    Verified

    The masterplan spreads the offices across separate buildings that feed into the Main Hub. That is the configuration that avoids the “single palazzo” effect and lets the existing building stock be recovered a piece at a time.

    Conference Hall

    Verified

    The Main Hub's auditorium, which the masterplan says is to be sized against demand. No document states how many seats.

Activities

Sport and free time around the campus. The masterplan asks for proximity between homes, sport and green space; the individual activities listed here are the project's own choices.

  1. 01

    Sport Center

    Scenario

    The masterplan lists a gym and wellness among the Main Hub's functions, but makes them explicitly conditional on being economically sustainable. It stays a conditional hypothesis, not a commitment.

    • Calisthenics — An equipped outdoor area.
    • Pool — An indoor pool for open swimming.
    • Martial arts — A room with tatami.
    • Climbing — An indoor wall.
  2. 02

    Football pitch

    Target

    An outdoor sports ground on the edge of the campus. The masterplan asks for proximity to sport; it does not call for a pitch. This is an objective the project has set itself.

  3. 03

    Trekking club

    Target

    Walking routes linking the campus to the landscape around it. No document describes them: they are an objective the project has set itself.

Services

The campus's everyday life. Restaurant, canteen and bar are listed by the masterplan among the Main Hub's functions.

  1. 01

    Restaurant

    Verified

    The masterplan lists “ristorante e mensa” among the Main Hub's functions. How it is run, how large it is and when it opens are set out nowhere.

  2. 02

    Café

    Verified

    The masterplan names the bar twice: among the Main Hub's functions, and among the things the plaza has to hold. Here it is drawn as a place of its own, which is a choice of representation.

Apartments

Homes for the people who work in the campus. The masterplan asks that they sit within a reasonable walking radius, and allows recovery, affordable rent and new units only where they are needed.

  1. 01

    Planck

    Target

    The masterplan places housing within a reasonable walking radius of the campus, and this unit sits inside that radius like every other. Its size and the number of apartments are still open.

  2. 02

    Einstein

    Target

    The model combines recovery of existing buildings, affordable rent and new units only where they are needed. Which of the three applies to this unit has not been decided.

  3. 03

    Curie

    Target

    One of the housing units the model foresees. The masterplan does not say how many there are or where they sit: both depend on which buildings can actually be recovered.

  4. 04

    Prandtl

    Target

    Housing for the people who work in the campus. The masterplan asks for proximity between homes, childcare, school, sport and green space: family logistics are meant to become an advantage.

  5. 05

    Newton

    Target

    The masterplan assesses the buildings as a single energy system — photovoltaics, storage, heat pumps, load management and monitoring. Housing is part of that assessment too.

  6. 06

    Oppenheimer

    Target

    In this diagram it is the unit furthest from the campus, and it still sits inside the walking radius the masterplan sets as a condition for housing.
