The project seeks to transform As into an indipendent town, while preserving the positive characteristic of a village, by preserving and diffusing local culture and product with a focus on sustainable development.
The building and public spaces are flexible and versatile, capable of adapting themselves to different seasons, functions, and activities. The re-conception of this central area of As will become an imput to create a different model for a town based on the new sustainable and social prerogatives of today. By creating activities in the centre of the town, we aspire to involving all the members of the community.
One of the major goals of the project is to create a highly energy efficient building, utilizing passive design principles such as solar energy, terminal inertia, natural ventilation, water recovery, and green roofs. |
