Inauguration of the Cascina Ri-Nascita construction site

DVArea · 19 January 2024

In the presence of guest of honour Ornella Vanoni and Pierfrancesco Maran, the Housing Councillor of Milan City Council, work officially commenced on 20 December for Cascina Ri-Nascita.

Based on the concept for the historic redevelopment and adaptive reuse of the complex by CRA (Carlo Ratti Associati) and Italo Rota, DVA – together with DVMEP, DVS, ODUElab, and Dieci Decibel – developed the integrated design and will oversee construction supervision, combining design sensitivity with technical expertise. A project of significant social value, created to provide a safe space for women escaping violence, supported by the SVS Donna Aiuta Donna non-profit network and CADMI – the Milan-based shelter for women survivors of abuse.
