START è un progetto per la promozione e la diffusione della cultura architettonica. Il nostro obiettivo è offrire a giovani professionisti informazioni continue sul panorama architettonico globale, le news, offrendo loro la possibilità di mettere in mostra il proprio sapere, i contest. Il portale è un luogo di incontro multidisciplinare, per condividere idee, progetti, visioni e analisi, senza limiti di città o territorio. Alla base dell’architettura c’è la ricerca, è questo il posto per condividerla.
Description
Thema & LocationPisa is a city with a long history that has preserved its ancient charm. The Middle Ages was the period of greatest splendor, during which expansionist ambitions and flourishing commercial traffic made Pisa one of the four Maritime Republics. To careful economic growth policies they were joined intentions of cultural development that led to the foundation of some of the most important academic centers in Italy. The University, founded in the XIV century, and the Normale School, established in the XIX century, are located a short distance from Piazza del Duomo, better known as Cathedral Square, one of the places of greater recognition of the city. The Cathedral and the bell tower of the twelfth century - the "Leaning Tower" - make up the square and are among the monuments recognized as UNESCO heritage.

The proposed project will have to know how to setup one crucial point that represents a three union between Piazza del Duomo and the University campus. Architecture that will become an important contemporary piece to the historic city.
