Albòra Complex, Genova

Inhabited Green

A project inspired by the dry stone wall and the cultivated strip, characteristic elements of the Ligurian environment and building culture, to which is added a sophisticated hidden technology to give the complex high energy efficiency.

The dry stone wall is reinterpreted with a ventilated facade made of stone slabs, while the cultivated strip becomes a green roof garden.

The complex blends into the context with a volume that remains contained within the profile of the existing terrain and connects to it through the green element, which, starting from the roof, is distributed across the different levels.

The volumes gradually decrease and reduce from the mountain towards the sea, opening up to large terraces where wide openings dematerialize the building and take advantage of the exposure, harnessing the benefits of winter solar radiation.
