The aim of this project is to regain this historic consistency renovating the existing buildings and adding new ones. New buildings are sharing some common aspects with the existing buildings, form, scale, material, but affirm at the same time their strong identity.

This whole is finally forming a new kind of hamlet revealing the existing (but almost forgotten) layers of the site.
