Abstract
In 2016 the Italian Ministry of University and Scientific Research announces the competition of ideas "Innovative Schools" identifying, throughout the national territory, 51 areas destined to house school buildings of different levels. The most interesting content of the entire competition was linked to the request of “innovative schools from an architectural, plant engineering, technological, energy efficiency and structural and seismic point of view, characterized by the presence of new learning environments and by the openness to the territory": the old norms of 1975 are overcome in order to pass to a logic of "performance type" in which the design criteria are adapted to the didactic and organizational needs of a school in continuous change. The project configures a Comprehensive Institute (Infant, Primary and Secondary School) for 536 pupils to be built on an area of 27,000 square meters of a Municipality of medieval origins in the province of Avellino in Campania. The design team, since the formulation of the first preliminary hypotheses, wanted to conceive the project as a translation of the archetypal image of community life: a village of huts.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
