THE AIA
According to the analysis of Cascinas in the Lombardy region, the concept of the courtyard (aia) holds significant importance. However, the courtyard not being perceived at Cascina Lossano has led to the loss of the building's architectural and historical identity, placing it at the center of the project. In Cascina Lossano, the goal is to emphasize the boundaries of the courtyard by creating volumes among existing buildings and making landscape improvements. The semi-open communal spaces created by the added volumes aim to frame the landscape view, rejuvenating the agricultural atmosphere associated with Cascina. Considering the region's climate, these communal areas are pergola areas designed for shading.
