Busselli Scherer takes part in the exhibition ‘THE PARADOX OF REALISED UTOPIA: A TRILOGY’
Busselli Scherer takes part in the exhibition ‘THE PARADOX OF REALISED UTOPIA: A TRILOGY’

In order to narrate the state of architecture in South Tyrol, the Südtiroler Künstlerbund is organising three exhibitions united by a single thread: ‘transcending conventions and observing reality from a different point of view’. The exhibitions will be structured as a trilogy: the conception of the architectural project, the construction of the building and the narration of the building once realised or how the building is told/presented through the media. The three exhibitions will be held in succession at the end of each year 2024, 2025, 2026.

For the first exhibition – entitled ‘Oblique’ – dedicated to the conceptualisation of the architectural project, the Busselli Scherer will exhibit the proposal submitted to the 2022 design competition for the construction of the TINNE Museum in Chiusa.

The exhibition, which will open on 13.12.2024, will be held at SKB ARTES, via Weggenstein 12A, 39100 Bolzano.

 

THE PLAN Award 2024, Busselli Scherer receives honorable mention with Trilitica NOI Techpark B6 project
THE PLAN Award 2024, Busselli Scherer receives honorable mention with Trilitica NOI Techpark B6 project

We are pleased to announce that Busselli Scherer received the honorable mention in the Mixed-Use Future category of THE PLAN Award 2024 with Trilitica NOI Techpark B6 project.  The mixed-use building – which will house laboratories, offices and open spaces – conceived to reduce its carbon footprint to zero thanks to a design based on essentiality and compositional purity, applied research into the life cycle and impact of building materials, a green energy supply, and the living quality of workspaces and laboratories. Trilitica is a sustainable project designed to become the first Zero Carbon certified building in Italy for offices and laboratories.

At Cersaie 2024 guests of The Plan
At Cersaie 2024 guests of The Plan

It was a wonderful occasion, that of CERSAIE 2024. Together with THE PLAN, and others from the world of architecture, we had the opportunity to discuss different issues related to the fields of design, materials, innovation and sustainability. Moderated by Nicola Leonardi, co-founder and director of THE PLAN, this multi-voice dialogue brought to light different approaches and philosophies of thought. From large public realizations, bearers of an important collective message related to the environmental weight that the design and construction sector has on the environment and society, to detail projects related to the world of retail and hospitality where local craft realities have the opportunity to express their know-how and their ability to innovate and experiment through natural materialities and quality design symbol of our made in italy.

Thanks to THE PLAN for this interesting opportunity!

The video of the event is available here.

An energising experience, an opportunity to discover ourselves and explore our identity.
There are projects that ask you to step out of your comfort zone, to mark a point in the journey you are on, and then start again with greater awareness and energy. Thanks to ISPLORA, the online e-learning platform for professional development specialising in cinematic-quality films, we had the opportunity to tell our story through the renovated spaces of our studio and a project with a strong identity: the NOI Techpark/ D2.

Housing assistance: new project in Kaltern
Housing assistance: new project in Kaltern

For the municipality of Kaltern, South Tyrol, we are designing a new facility dedicated to housing assistance for the elderly. The building, based on an inclusive and relational approach, will expand and enhance services for the elderly. The work involves the extension and renovation of the existing ‘Heinrich von Rottenburg Retirement Home Foundation’. The new construction, built to ‘ClimateHouseA’ standards, will be a contemporary building in strong connection with nature and the surrounding landscape. A harmonious volume, pure and essential, aimed at tranquillity and a sense of welcome. The existing structure will also be restructured in some of its parts, favouring access between old and new. The result of a major research process, the newly built residence will fit into the existing context while maintaining a clear identity. A work in itself capable, at the same time, of harmonising with the existing architecture. A valuable project designed for the well-being of residents, staff and visitors.

Lot B6: a new project at NOI
Lot B6: a new project at NOI

A new adventure begins for our studio at the NOI Techpark in Bolzano. It is the design of the new Lot B6, overlooking Buozzi Street. The building will be an integral part of the expansion of the technology park and will house various stakeholders such as the EcoCenter and the ITEC partnership. B6 will be a mixed-use building that will consist of office space, research laboratories and open spaces belonging to UniBZ. In detail, the EcoCenter spaces will feature a ‘unique’ laboratory dedicated to water and waste analysis. While for the ITEC partnership, the reference spaces will relate to the PNRR South-Tyrol project ‘water-energy-environment innovation infrastructure’ for climate change and fair energy transition in the digital era. The planned infrastructure area will be divided as follows: Sensors and Robotics Unit; Energy conversion, storage and use Unit; Field Monitoring Mobile Unit; Digital Computation and Foresight Unit; Innovation Gararge (open space).

A new space for research, collaboration and innovation!

THE PLAN Award 2023
THE PLAN Award 2023

We have entered the shortlist with the project Headquarters ASM Meran! This year we will participate in The Plan Award with an adaptive reuse project realised on the outskirts of Merano, a stone’s throw from the historic Hippodrome. The new ASM headquarters, a building oriented towards inclusiveness and well-being in the workplace, is competing in the category Renovation/Completed. At this stage, you can help us win the Community Wish List Special Prize by casting your vote.

The building transforms the space of a former warehouse into an open and flexible office. A place of work and interrelation that – also in the light of the new post-pandemic needs – abandons the classic open space concept by redesigning the space in an inclusive and modular way.

Archichef Night, lemons & more
Archichef Night, lemons & more

This evening, 28 March, we will be guests of the ALTER ASCHLACHTHOF Restaurant in Brixen/Bressanone as ‘chefs’ to try our hand at composing a special dish. We have entitled it “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!”. The reason for this title has a lot to do with one of the most common challenges in the world of architecture: to realise a well-made project with the ingredients – sometimes few, sometimes poor, sometimes difficult – that you are given. The event, organised by TOWANT, will see us in the company of other architecture firms and some interesting companies such as Ceramica Sant’Agostino, Flos, Moroso, Mottura, Signature, Tubes, and Wall&decò.

Event partner: Architecture Foundation South Tyrol.

 

Architecture Prize, the jury has its say
Architecture Prize, the jury has its say

JuKuRIKU is a finalist for the South Tyrol Architecture Prize in the Public category. When we nominated the project, the category chosen by our studio was not the one for which we became a finalist. We tell you why. When we nominated the JuKuRIKU project for the 10th edition of the South Tyrol Architecture Prize, the category chosen by our studio was not the one for which we became finalists. We had imagined that the project would be part of the ‘Interior’ category because our intervention focused mainly on that aspect. We had endeavoured to redefine the interior spaces of the former fire brigade headquarters, later the Rifiano municipal warehouse, transforming them into a cultural centre dedicated to young people. A special centre, with a raw, building soul, in which local boys and girls could express their identity. The jury of this tenth edition grasped something further in JuKuRIKU, moving the work from the Interior to the Public. Thus we were confronted with projects as diverse as the Civic Library in Brixen – winner of the award -, the Music School in Brixen, the Intercable Arena in Bruneck, the Kindergarten in Rifiano and the service building for the sports centre in Toggenburg, among many others. The motivations expressed by Sandra Bartoli, Peter Riepl and Clemens Waldhart, together with the level of the public-related projects, are awards of which we are particularly proud. JuKuRIKU is a project with a strong public connotation “…conceived as a small city, the spaces articulated in such a way as to be able to host different activities, the raw materials used and the essential character of the environments give young people a place to make their own”. Now the jury has the floor.

“Public – What is striking is the constantly cultivated relationship with public housing, which seems to be based on a solid competition culture. The realisations are also accurate and consistent, generally complete right down to the furnishings and graphics. There seems to be no systematic, counterproductive economising to the bone, which is gratifying as it testifies to an idea of long-term sustainability and responsible use of public resources. With intelligent planning, public funds can do more than just serve their intended purpose”.
