Piazza De Nava and Piazza Alvaro Redevelopment and Restoration / MICROSCAPE architecture urban design AA + nuvolaB architetti associati

The client's objective was to carry out the redevelopment and restoration of the square in order to integrate the National Archaeological Museum (where the Riace Bronzes are exhibited) and the urban context. The new Piazza De Nava is the true urban center of Reggio Calabria, where the two urban systems of the built fabric converge: that of the historic city and that of the twentieth-century expansion, structured along two axes with different angles, both parallel to the coastline. We structured the project around this feature, linking it deeply to the urban structure of the city.
