Reimagining the ruins. Rimini’s urban reactivation
This project reimagines Rimini’s historic core through a masterplan titled Unfolding the Spettacolo, inspired by the city’s performative legacy. Key streets become thematic urban corridors linked by a central spine. Two architectural interventions anchor the plan: a bridge-like volume spans the Ex Convento di San Francesco, hosting a restaurant and walkway over the ruins, acting as a gate to the municipal market. At Palazzo Lettimi, a new student dormitory and open performance space support student life and foster artistic creation. The project blends heritage, everyday use, and feasibility to foster a more resilient, connected, and culturally vibrant Rimini.
