A disused 1970s office building in the heart of Mestre has been redeveloped into a new contemporary urban residence. The design, by AI Progetti, involved a complete change of use from offices to residential housing, transforming the building’s purpose and appearance.
The intervention resulted in 91 residential units including studios and one-bedroom apartments, designed to ensure comfort, efficiency and functionality, meeting the needs of future tenants for both long-term and tourist rentals. The building, located close to the center of Mestre and a few steps from the new Parco Costa, now presents itself as a unified and orderly volume, capable of restoring architectural quality and environmental sustainability to a strategic urban context.
