The book Reinventing Heritage explores 25 years of work by the Milan-based architecture firm Park, founded and led by Filippo Pagliani and Michele Rossi. Its approach starts from what already exists, transforming buildings and spaces through a careful dialogue with their history, identity, and surrounding context. It is a method that brings together design, memory, and innovation to rethink what we already have rather than replace it. As part of the conference “Architecture That Lived Twice: Understanding Contemporary Heritage in Order to Intervene”, Andrea Manfredini, Project Leader at Park, will present two projects involving the enhancement of two Milanese buildings from the 1950s, each characterized by a different approach to intervention. The first, Torre della Permanente, designed by Achille and Piergiacomo Castiglioni, represents a thoughtful restoration and reuse of the existing building. At the same time, the project is distinguished by the addition of a new upper level, designed to give the entire building a new lease of life. The second, Palazzo Galbani, designed by Eugenio and Ermenegildo Soncini, with structural engineering by Pier Luigi Nervi, takes a more delicate approach, focusing on restoring and bringing back the building’s original identity.
