Behind a ‘Senseable’ Green Building: The New Sistema Ambiente Headquarter
In the global run towards a more sustainable built environment, industrial areas and buildings represent an undeniable challenge but also an opportunity to advance more radical projects. The article focuses on the first phases of the design process behind the winning project of an Italian architectural competition for a new Green Building in an industrial area. Based on cultural and ecological premises, the project integrates nature (sun, wind, water and vegetation) as a means to achieve an ambitious and sustainable regeneration, meeting Nzeb targets, thanks to an interdisciplinary urban, architectural and landscape design process supported by the adoption of digital technologies (BIM). The technological mix of traditional but innovative nature-based solutions has been inteded to reduce energy demand and carbon footprint, but also to re-create positive and reciprocal relationships between nature and humans.
