The project involves the requalification of the former psychiatric hospital complex in Pratozanino. The place of intervention is located 20 kilometers from the west side of Genova, and about 3 km from the sea.
The masterplan project involves the installation of a technological center with an annex (services and residences). The technological center is an area for the development of high technology production. The building, with a low environmental impact, can enable utilities and actions in an interregional context. Its structure
made of industrial material shelters some research labs and offers a range of services that highlight the park.
Offices and laboratories created to support high technology are positioned at the entrance of the park. A range of additional services complete the structure of the technological center and are synergistic with the recreational center, placed in the south area of the district: a hotel equipped with a high quality fitness center in order to receive all of the technological center’s temporary users.
