Studio Marco Piva in Africa | 坐落于非洲的Marco Piva工作室
Studio Marco Piva is demonstrating significant commitment in the African architectural context, contributing to the reflection on the socio-cultural evolution of the continent. The attention towards Africa in the field of architecture and design has become tangible even at this year's Venice Architecture Biennale, which chose to explore the theme of the relationship between Africa and the Western world, with a focus on decolonization and the social and cultural redemption of the entire African continent. Marco Piva工作室在非洲建筑领域展现了显著的承诺,对非洲大陆社会文化进化的思考做出了贡献。在建筑和设计领域,对非洲的关注变得越来越明显,甚至在今年的威尼斯建筑双年展上,它选择探索非洲与西方世界之间的关系主题,重点放在去殖民化以及整个非洲大陆的社会和文化救赎上。
Under the guidance of Armando Bruno, founding partner and CEO, SMP has consolidated a prominent position in the African market, presenting a diversified portfolio of projects ranging from hotels to residential areas and resorts. The professional commitment is accompanied by a deep personal passion for Africa, demonstrated through frequent trips to different countries on the continent. 在创始合伙人兼首席执行官Armando Bruno的指导下,SMP在非洲市场上巩固了显著的地位。从酒店到住宅区和度假村,展示了多元化的项目组合。专业的承诺伴随着对非洲的深刻个人热情,通过频繁前往非洲大陆的不同国家来展现。
An important aspect of SMP Studio's work in Africa is the commitment to social projects that aim to improve the quality of life for local communities. A significant example is the ongoing research project in Nigeria, which focuses on addressing the urgent housing needs of the region. Many residents currently live on boats, which also serve as their main source of livelihood. To address this issue, Armando Bruno, in collaboration with Navigo Toscana, the largest network of nautical companies in Italy, is studying solutions aimed at creating affordable and sustainable floating eco-homes of various sizes. The main material used is bamboo and other materials obtained through recovery processes, such as phytoremediation hemp. The residences will be interconnected through a shared pedestrian corridor, making pathways more efficient and safe. The project involves the use of energy storage systems as well as the establishment of floating fish farming and agriculture, recognizing their crucial role in the daily life of the local population. SMP工作室在非洲的重要工作方面之一是致力于旨在改善当地社区生活质量的社会项目。一个重要的例子是正在尼日利亚进行的研究项目,重点关注该地区紧迫的住房需求。许多居民目前住在船上,这也是他们的主要生计来源。为了解决这个问题,Armando Bruno与Navigo Toscana合作,后者是意大利最大的航海公司网络,正在研究旨在创建各种规模的经济实惠且可持续的浮动生态住宅的解决方案。主要使用的材料是竹子和其他通过回收过程获得的材料,例如植物修复大麻。这些住宅将通过共享行人走廊相互连接,使路径更加高效和安全。该项目涉及使用储能系统以及建立浮动养鱼和农业,认识到它们在当地居民的日常生活中的重要作用。
The design philosophy aims to find a balance between ecological conservation, social equity, and economic resilience. 设计理念旨在寻求生态保护、社会公平和经济韧性之间的平衡。——Armando Bruno
In the context of African architecture, there is also significant development of high-level residential projects for private clients. A tangible example involving SMP is located in Lagos, where construction has begun on a green-immersed residence designed to ensure constant security. The realization of this project presents an extremely complex technical and construction challenge. Urban areas are prone to frequent attacks by both sea pirates and criminal gangs from the mainland. Therefore, security is the top priority for future residents without compromising the aesthetic aspect and the pleasantness of the surrounding environment. 在非洲建筑的背景下,也有许多高水平的私人住宅项目正在显著发展。SMP参与的一个实际案例位于拉各斯,建造一个绿色浸润的住宅,旨在确保持续的安全。这个项目的实现提出了极其复杂的技术和建筑挑战。城市地区经常受到海盗和来自内陆的犯罪团伙的袭击。因此,安全是未来居民的首要任务,同时不能牺牲美学方面和周围环境的宜人性。
There are numerous projects in West Africa, such as a recent residential complex in Accra, Ghana. The chosen location for this project is Cantonment, a residential neighborhood known for its diverse international community. This multicultural environment attracts residents of various nationalities, including many embassy officials. The architecture and interior design project is currently under construction. Another interesting project in Accra is located in a place called Airport Hills, a recently developed area strongly integrated into the hill, just outside the city center. This place offers a peaceful atmosphere, a sense of security, and the opportunity to live in close contact with nature, creating a pleasant environment for residents. Four other new residences are under construction in Accra, this time in the Gold Coast, a renowned coastal region famous for its beaches and historical sites, including the residence of a well-known local pastor with a chapel open to the community. 在西非有许多项目,例如迦纳阿克拉最近的一个住宅综合体。这个项目选择的位置是坎顿区,一个以其多元化的国际社区而闻名的住宅区。这个多文化的环境吸引了来自不同国籍的居民,包括许多使馆官员。这个建筑和室内设计项目目前正在建设中。阿克拉另一个有趣的项目位于一个叫做机场山的地方,这是一个最近开发的区域,紧密融入山丘,位于市中心以外。这个地方提供了宁静的氛围、安全感和与自然亲密接触的机会,为居民创造了宜人的环境。另外还有四个新住宅项目正在阿克拉建设,这次是在金海岸,这是一个以海滩和历史遗迹而著名的沿海地区,包括一位著名的当地牧师的住所,他的教堂向社区开放。
Another interesting project involves the construction of a day hospital clinic in Brazzaville, the capital of the Republic of Congo. This facility is part of a larger project that includes the construction of a new hospital and medical research center, which will be the largest in the region. Another recent project by SMP Studio is the construction of an hotel in Casablanca, Morocco. The hotel design integrates the cultural heritage of the place and traditional Moroccan motifs with elements from Italian culture. 另一个有趣的项目是在刚果共和国首都布拉柴维尔建造一家日间医院诊所。这个设施是一个更大项目的一部分,包括建造一个新医院和医学研究中心,将成为该地区最大的医疗中心。SMP工作室最近的另一个项目是在摩洛哥卡萨布兰卡建造一家酒店。酒店设计将当地文化遗产和传统摩洛哥图案与意大利文化元素结合起来。
Studio Marco Piva continues to be involved in numerous other ambitious projects. Currently, they are working on masterplan designs in Algeria, Ivory Coast, and Egypt, with the aim of contributing to the redemption of these countries and projecting them towards a diversified future. The consistent commitment to the development of projects of such magnitude demonstrates the determination to use architecture and design for progress and transformation. Marco Piva工作室继续参与许多其他雄心勃勃的项目。目前,他们正在阿尔及利亚、科特迪瓦和埃及进行总体规划设计,旨在为这些国家的复兴做出贡献,并将它们投向多元化的未来。持续致力于开发如此庞大的项目,表明了利用建筑和设计推动进步和转型的决心。
