New Luiss Guido Carli University Building in Rome
A Versatile Structure integrated in Urban Green
Alvisi Kirimoto
Close to Villa Ada, in the heart of Rome, Alvisi Kirimoto with Studio Gemma has designed a new hub surrounded by greenery for the Luiss Guido Carli university campus. The new intervention, which completes the university spaces and enhances the surrounding green areas, has involved the demolition of an existing shed, subject to landscape constraints, and its reconstruction as a new multi-purpose educational building, serving the university campus and available to host extra-curricular activities and events.The project stems from the idea of raising the volume to put it in direct connection with the treetops, freeing up the ground floor as much as possible.
