The project of Gregotti Associati (A. Cagnardi, P. Cerri, V. Gregotti, H. Matsui) is situated in Venice, in a former industrial site near the railway station.
The social housing estate was built in two separate moments: between 1981 and 1985 and later between 1998 and 2001.
This area is a tribute to the morphology of historic Venice: 200 apartments take place between “calli” (little alleys) and “campi” (squares).
In addition Gregotti here replicates another strong element of venetian tradition, the “altana”.
