The project involves the architectural and plant renovation of a building built in the 1920s to house the city library. The building was already the subject of an intervention in the 1980s; it was radically modified both in function – originally it was the dwelling of the doctor, then it was used as medical clinics – and in the typology, with an extension on the east side and the new positioning of the stairwell. The two floors have been completely freed from the existing internal walls: the ground floor, which has become an open-space, is intended for public acceptance, book storage and reading room; the first floor has been divided into three rooms: two for children and adults, and the third for a multi-purpose room. The program also required the creation of a new multimedia environment; since it did not find its place in the existing building, an expansion was built on the south side, towards the garden.
