Architecture tours | Ordine Architetti Torino | 2016
In 2016 the Turin Chamber of Architects asked us to organise 4 tours around Turin for the general public. The tours aimed to be an opportunity to make known the projects that in the last years have transformed Turin into a Post-industrial reconstruction laboratory focusing on the retrofit of abandoned industrial areas into new cultural poles, reinventing new habits of living reusing buildings and restoring the historic center with contemporary micro inserts.
