STUDENT WORK / Museum of the City / 4A Rome Studio

March 19, 2015 Posted by Julia Nakanishi Undergraduate Work, Work

Monday and Thursday are studio days. On these days in particular, the third floor undergraduate studio is filled with a frenetic energy of design, research, and exploration. Students can usually be found talking excitedly with design professors and classmates in a habitat saturated with trace sketches, study models, and empty coffee cups. Every week we’ll share a completed project, churned out from this energetic studio environment.

Museum of the City | Sheelah Tolton and Monica Lalas

The Museo Della Città, the Museum of the City of Rome, is an approach to both artifact preservation and urban planning. It aims to explore a new relationship with the Tiber river.  Once the location of the Aurelian wall, the riverside at the Mattatoio di Testaccio is currently underdeveloped relative to the rest of the city.  The remaining fragment of the wall serves as the point of departure for a design that aims primarily to activate and increase the permeability of the Mattatoio grounds.  By using the pre-existing conditions, the museum reintroduces the wall as a datum for a variety of connecting public spaces, as well as the exhibits themselves.
