The aim of the project was to create a functional, spatial and psychological transformation of a set of military education buildings into a complex that represents: – a real and symbolic opportunity for the local community: a training area must interact actively with both the cultural world of the private citizen and the business world; – exploitation of the natural features of the place in relation to its new function: wide windows protected by the same type of brise-soleil roof that covers all the campus buildings let the natural world enter what were uncommunicative buildings transforming them into places of activity and exchange. – exploitation of open spaces: a university campus and training site is also a place of creativity and surprises; careful planning of the open spaces between the buildings for particular purposes (sport, relaxation, open air perfomances, social exchange) was a complementary element of the project and of equal importance to the buildings.
