Noivoiloro is a private no-profit Association for the care of the disabled persons. Because of total lack of public funding, 80% of activities is organized to finance 20% for direct assistance to disabled people. This has transformed it into the most important civic centre of the city in which a lot of activities are developed, from a cafe/ restaurant with professional kitchen, a theater and “open-air” feasts populated by thousands of people in summer, dance laboratory, graphic workshop, working activities, temporary residences and offices for re-education to the job.
The building has high programmatic complexity, in equilibrium among a concept of privacy and community. This way, every part of the building it is a concluded primary form.The roof of the building produces a folding that repeats in all the buildings: in every part it assumes a different meaning and measure. This way, in the theater the shape of the roof means the breakup of the sound, in the restaurant it brings the difference of the level of the the ground, in another part makes domestic the figure of temporary house, finally in the laboratories it is the traditional shape of the shed.
The design of the light affected the spaces of the theater and the restaurant. In the theater, scenic and multifunctional space at the same time, each ridge line of the roof is different and not orthogonal, nor in plants nor in the third dimension, except for the middle one. This has meant the choice of linear elements on the walls to light the entire space by an indirect emission. For the restaurant has opted for a diffused lighting fixtures with frosted glass that would ensure a warm and welcoming light, drawing constellations of light elements.
