Parini Library

The former Parini school is located in the III Municipality, in the former village of Tufello. The structure covers over 3,000 square metres and consists of a three-storey building with a terrace roof, a one-storey building originally intended as a canteen, a small service annex, and is located in a courtyard area of relevance. 

The new cultural centre/library will be organised, adapting the planned functional programme to the architectural, spatial and structural characteristics of the existing building. For this reason, the recovery and architectural enhancement of the building, in respect of the original distributive identity, require defining a more open and flexible spatial order, compatible with the existing logic of the succession of "rooms". 

Library 3.0 will be a point of lending and consultation, but above all it will be a place of information, access to new technologies, Internet browsing, a place to promote reading and activities for all ages: adults, children and teenagers. The new structure will combine the need to preserve and protect the architectural and structural character of the former Parini school building, adapting it to the recent trends in the use of library spaces that favour the adoption of a dynamic, fluid and useful system of spaces, capable of favouring a wide range of interactions between the different activities established by pursuing the innovative model of the civic centre. A network of rooms that orders a wide functional offer and the creation of a safe and inclusive public space aimed at both motor and sense-perceptual disabilities, and all special educational needs.

Arco di Travertino Library

The building under intervention is located at the intersection of Via Arco di Travertino and Via Carroceto (VII Municipality), in the exchange node adjacent to the ATAC bus terminus, whose surface is over 5,000 square metres. The new civic centre envisaged by the project will be built by integrating the current covered square, which stands on a public parking lot arranged on three underground levels. The only parts of the pole currently used and in operation are the three basement levels below the street level, intended for public parking. The project, configured as an urban redevelopment intervention, provides for the maintenance of the existing wooden structure and roof, proceeding with the reorganisation of the covered interior space. The new functions will therefore be structurally and architecturally independent. The different spaces that will be created within the new structure will be the following: a library and direct accessory services, an exhibition space, an auditorium, and a space dedicated to children with a semi-exhibitory function and independent access. Inside the structure there will be co-working and meeting spaces, classrooms and workshops, a music room with an adjoining recording room and spaces for refreshments. The multi-purpose building will be organised on two levels, with public spaces that will directly overlook the covered square in front. The Ground Floor will include functions for hospitality, meetings, exhibitions, conferences, music and refreshments. 

The first floor will be used for the library and its direct linked functions such as a reading area, consultation area, study rooms, and laboratories. The interventions envisaged from the structural, architectural and system engineering point of view will concern the seismic adaptation of the parking structure, the completion of the finishing state of the ground floor slab to reach the necessary useful height, and the new structural frame for the first floor slab. The removal of the perimeter wooden infill walls, which currently occlude the square, and the removal of the transparent glazed band that closes the roof in a planar manner will be carried out. In addition, the project will include the restoration of its functionality, through an element that will allow the passage of fumes and the natural ventilation of the covered square.
