Supervisor of the team
SPAZIVIOLENTI
The team is composed of students and former students of the faculties of Architecture and Design under the supervision of Prof. P. Mellano, M. Vaudetti and S. Canepa. Created in 2014, it carried out a first redevelopment of some outdoor spaces at "Lorusso e Cutugno" prison in Turin. Since 2017, the team is engaged in a participatory design and realization process of interior and exterior furnishing within the "San Michele" prison of Alessandria. In 2013 the European Court of Human Rights issued the "Torreggiani sentence". It condemned Italy because of the deterioration of penitentiary buildings¿ spaces. In response, "San Michele" has been developing a project of "dynamic surveillance" that implies a new attention to both architectural and social re-educational aspects. The team collaborated with the Department of Law of the University of Turin and has involved all the actors of the prison. It conceived a design that meets at the same time needs and restrictions of such a peculiar environment. The objective is to bring the attention to a qualitative improvement of the penalty spaces and their habitability. |
