site\u2019s industrial heritage as a space dedicated to culture, social interaction and community life. The building takes the form of an open and flexible civic space, capable of engaging with the new square and the wider network of public spaces, thereby becoming a focal point for the community. <\/p>\n<p> The architecture arises from the combination of simple volumes, shaped by the removal of sections to create loggias, terraces, double-height spaces and communal areas. The ground floor, which is completely open to the public, houses a foyer, a caf\u00e9 and a co-working space that flow seamlessly into the public space, whilst the upper floors accommodate an auditorium, reading rooms and multi-purpose spaces organised according to a flexible and reconfigurable layout. <\/p>\n<p> The proposal reinterprets the character of Lombardy\u2019s industrial architecture through a contemporary design language, based on compositional clarity, structural integrity and the quality of materials. Natural materials, large glazed surfaces and a modular structure ensure comfort, accessibility and adaptability over time. <\/p>\n<p> Sustainability is integrated right from the design stage: green roofs, solar panels, a high-performance building envelope and materials with a low environmental impact all contribute to creating an efficient and resilient building. Bareggio Hub thus becomes a new hub for community life, capable of bringing together memory, public space and innovation within a single architectural design. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_6 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_dark et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><strong>Stato: <\/strong>Concorso di architettura<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cliente<\/strong>: Comune di Bareggio<\/p>\n<p><strong>Design team:<\/strong> M.
