New logo for the architectural practice founded by and. Starting from the structure of the letters, we built an open system that can shift shape and mood, adapting to different contexts and situations.
Very much like an open office for architecture.

This is just a sneak peek of the soon-to-be-released visual identity. Stick around to catch it.

More contents about our ongoing school project near Bologna in the north of Italy.
Even at this stage, the building is already legible:
openings, distances, alignments: a simple system that begins to organise uses preserving adaptability.

The proportions come from what is already there,the surrounding rural buildings, their scale, their ordinary logic.

What is being built is intentionally elementary. A framework more than a form, meant to stay open over time allowing maximum freedom of use over time.

A sequence of rooms defined by walls and voids.

The plan develops as a clear spatial framework: classrooms, circulation and open spaces are arranged through parallel built lines, where each opening calibrates light, movement and possible uses.

At this stage of construction, the project reveals how a simple concrete structure begins to measure space: not as an isolated object, but as part of a wider rural continuity.

The large openings relate to the scale of nearby farm buildings, recalling the ordinary proportion of agricultural structures across the plain.

What appears elementary is intended to remain open: a public building designed for daily use, but capable of accommodating different forms of occupation over time.

What began years ago as a line drawn in the landscape is now taking shape as a new public kindergarten in the northern Italian plain near Bologna.

The project is based on a simple principle: parallel walls placed in the landscape. These built lines define classrooms between interior and open fields, working with the flat horizon of the Po Valley and its agricultural grid.

Specificity and abstraction operate together. The walls respond to this precise territory while establishing a clear spatial system: an elementary public structure, adaptable and robust, open to future transformations beyond its current use as a kindergarten.

After a very long journey, the construction of the new kindergarten in the small town of Molinella is underway.
Designed to host up to 160 children, the project is conceived as a simple and adaptable structure allowing for a multiplicity of future public uses.
Parallel walls define open and flexible classrooms in close relationship with nature and the surrounding landscape, offering protected yet imaginative space for the children.

Over the summer we completed a small yet special project in Milan together with our friends and former students Tommaso Aliverti and Tommaso Sossi.
This light metal structure hosts the Ciclofficina by, a Milan-based association of young volunteers helping homeless people reintegrate into society by repairing and reusing broken bicycles collected across the city.
Conceived as an open and flexible space, the structure is clad in semi-transparent polycarbonate panels that turn it into a glowing lantern over the area.
Soon to be beautifully captured by our friend!

First exciting site visit for a new project with SenonerTammerle Architekten, developed by ORTUS in collaboration with.
Set within the extraordinary context of the Dolomites, we’re thrilled to see the first structural elements taking shape in dialogue with the spectacular rocky landscape surrouding the site.
This visit marks the beginning of a special construction process we are looking forward to follow closely in the coming months as part of a wider series of ongoing sites across Italy.
010 - ENFILADE HOUSE

In the Colonna-Gnudi Palace, in the heart of Bologna, ORTUS project for a young couple of actors, seeks harmony between the original hidden layers and the intrusive additions of the past century.
.
Materials played a crucial role in creating an atmosphere of calm and coziness, while establishing a subtle dialogue between the existing elements and the newly introduced ones.
We used only local materials, from handmade Bolognese tiles to bespoke plasters mixed with the reddish sand unique to this city.
.
The floor was carefully designed to restore the missing sections of the original terrazzo, using a mix of concrete and locally quarried stones chosen to match the colors of the Renaissance era flooring that once adorned the hall.
.
A beautiful journey with and 💛 we’ll keep sharing in the coming days!

010 - ENFILADE HOUSE

In the Colonna-Gnudi Palace, in the heart of Bologna, ORTUS project for a young couple of actors, seeks harmony between the original hidden layers and the intrusive additions of the past century.
.
Following our project approach, we designed new bathrooms by extending the existing spaces and cladding both old and new walls with waterproof plaster mixed with local sand, seamlessly blending the existing and new into one continuous, generous environment.
.
A special interior window allows natural light to illuminate an oversized shower that we aimed to fill with light and potentially connect to the rest of the house. In contrast, the second bathroom is clad in local burnt ceramic tiles in a dark red, almost black tone. We love the idea of offering this home two contrasting bathing experiences, united by the same handcrafted attention to detail and material experience.

A beautiful journey with and 💛 we’ll keep sharing in the coming days!

In the Colonna-Gnudi Palace, in the heart of Bologna, ORTUS project for a young couple of actors, testiera harmony between the original hidden layers and the intrusive additions of the past century.
.
The project reintroduces spatial coherence through selective demolitions and precise restoration, removing non-original partitions to recover the enfilade, visually reconnecting the street façade with the internal garden, as in the tradition of grand Italian palaces.
.
Among the many unveiling operations: a 17th-century original wooden ceiling brought back to light above the kitchen, now paired with a poured-on-site concrete countertop.
