Torre Massimiliana Cultural Centre
This project is located on the biggest island of the Venice lagoon, Saint Erasmus. The design of the museum and the cultural centre into the Torre Massimiliana complex is part of a bigger plan for restoring the entire island facilities. The tower used to be a military structure for controlling the entrance to the lagoon and had been abandoned for decades. The project aims to reconstruct the complex system defined by the Massimiliano Tower, its embankments, the docks, the beach and the farmlands insinuated between these elements, with the following objectives: preservation of the monument as a testimonial of a unique military defence construction; and the construction of a system of infrastructures that today guarantees the functionality of these spaces assigning specific but complementary roles to all new constructions (text from Lma and website C+S Associati).
