Spatial diagram defines basic spatial relations among different spatial unites.
Each spatial unit is a portion of space that is facilitating one or more  programmatic elements.
Basic spatial relations are the ones that organize positions of the spatial units, their sizes and shapes.
Spatial units could stay in front, or behind one another, at the top or below, on the left or on the right from one another, close or distant, inside of one another, intersected or connected.
They could be big or small, stretched or shortened, straight or curved, high or low, spread or punctual, service or serviced.

PIOVENEFABI / CHILDHOOD PAVILLION

PIOVENEFABI 

CHILDHOOD PAVILLION 
Milan

Example for drawing and model






The plot of the Childhood Pavilion appears today as an urban room tightly surrounded by buildings, walls and fences. The proximity of old and recent skyscrapers, big infrastructures and residential buildings makes the site appearing as a small and protected urban interior. This interior has one big opening: a unique window towards the new park and the city. The proposal for the Childhood Pavilion starts from this extremes and complex urban conditions: the building is a cloister that redesigns the heterogeneous limits of the area and on the meantime gives a new facade towards the park:  a new open and permeable front dialogues now with the facing public space. Inside its perimeter, a series of colonnades subdivides the plot into many open-air and indoor rooms, different in dimensions, shape and degree of protection: this are the playground rooms where the limits among the interior and exterior space remains ambiguous. On the higher floors - hosting the library, the family space, the administration and the sleeping rooms, the Pavilion is introverted and compact. Its specific shape and materiality, placed somewhere in between the Milanese tradition of Renaissance and the 60’s, Ettore Sottsass’s Totems and Sol Lewitt RIP - allows the air to flow from the park to the railways and naturally ventilate the plot and the interior spaces. In plan, the central stair and the service block leave the space free and flexible to be rearranged.
