The project related to lot 2 of the Libeskind Residences RB2 involves the construction of three residential buildings B6, B7 and B8 with heights between 6 and 10 floors (ground floor included) plus attic floor for a total GFA of approximately 14,400 m2. RB2 is located in the south-west area of the Integrated Intervention Program “City Life – former Fiera di Milano historic district area” and adjacent areas and is bordered to the south by via Spinola, to the west by the lot of RB1 residences (first lot already built of the Libeskind Residences) and to the north by the public park.
The architectural concept derives from the volumetric study of a courtyard house typology, segmented and recomposed in order to create buildings with an open scheme, in relation to each other and the neighborhood. The project takes up the architectural themes of the RB1 Libeskind Residences and the volumetric study of the buildings arises from the intersection of simple volumes with the multiform and articulated mass of balconies and attic floors.
To make the three buildings B6, B7 and B8 independent, the structural concept provides for structural joints on the first basement and ground floors. The structural elements are designed in reinforced concrete both for the horizontal (solid slabs) and for the vertical structures. Only the floors relating to the Penthouse (last and penultimate floor of each building) have a metal carpentry structure with reinforced concrete slabs on corrugated sheet metal.
SCE Project has been involved in the construction integrated design (architectural and structural), in the BIM & Data Management and the technical assistance on site for the construction of the Lot 2 of the Libeskind Residences RB2 in Milan.
