In a world increasingly moving towards sustainability and innovation, Politecnica stands out for its commitment to designing spaces that put human beings and environmental wellbeing at the center. We met with Giuseppe Cacozza, one of the faces behind this vision, for a conversation rich in insights on the future of sustainable architecture and on how today’s buildings can meet the needs of tomorrow.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Giuseppe, let’s start by talking about energy management in Ravenna.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Yes, in Ravenna we have adopted cutting-edge solutions for energy saving. An example is the use of waterfalls to cool and dehumidify<\/strong> environments naturally. We have also implemented green roofs<\/a><\/strong>, which, in addition to insulating, blend with the surrounding park, emphasizing our commitment to the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

And what about the transformability of buildings?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Designing buildings that can adapt over time is a priority for us. The agri-food center in Bologna, transformed into FICO,<\/strong> is a clear example: we renovated the spaces while preserving their functionality and efficiency, in a vision of flexibility and sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can you tell us about a specific project?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Certainly. In Florence, we have renovated the Congress Center<\/strong>, a building designed by Spadolini 50 years ago, with the intention of preserving its architectural structure while integrating it into the urban fabric. In Ravenna, we have realized two new buildings within an urban park,<\/strong> designed to integrate into the greenery and open to the public, one of which houses the Arpa, with solutions like the water wall for natural cooling.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the keyword in your approach to the project?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

“Building for humans<\/strong><\/em>” – designing for human beings. This concept summarizes our vision, where sustainability and technological innovation go hand in hand<\/strong> with respect for the environment and human needs, addressed with a multidisciplinary team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you, Giuseppe, for sharing with us your vision and the projects of Politecnica.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for your interest and the opportunity to have this dialogue.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this enlightening interview, Giuseppe Cacozza has offered us a window into the world of Politecnica, a company moving decisively towards a future where sustainable architecture is not just a desire, but a tangible reality, created to improve people’s lives and preserve our planet.<\/span><\/p>\n
