| Sumario: | [EN] Between 1960 and 1962, the Italian architects Angelo Mangiarotti and Bruno Morassutti, along with the structural engineer Aldo Favini, built a residential building on via Quadronno in Milan. Their proposal is actually indebted to the Principle of continuity of elevations a rule they themselves established to achieve the flexibility of the façade. This flexibility in the envelope allows multiple changes in floor plan in the domestic program, or even the transformation of the space for use as an office. All of this is possible due to the implementation of a strict modulation and prefabrication system and also the participation of the owners in the pre-execution phase. Thus, a project with a specific use is transformed into a living entity, thanks to an anticipation strategy on the part of the architects. This article presents a reflection on the design tactics used by Mangiarotti and Morassutti to enable so many changes to the building over time without the proposal losing an iota of its quality. The thousand and one lives in this building on via Quadronno make us think that, as architects, we still have time to propose new alternatives for the city. |
