Stazione di transito
Renovation of a cultural house in Cagliari

Between 2019 and 2021, Islands of  Architecture worked as a specialist collaborator with arts charity Carovana SMI (Sound Music Image) on a series of small interior projects, a number of which have been realised. Our role was to make the organisation's house more suitable and flexible to host public programming for different types of food, dance, art and vocational events, as well as for hosting international artistic collaborators, visitors and artists in residence.

After conducting a detailed inventory on all rooms, furniture and equipment in the house, a masterplan of work was devised to be installed in phases, as funding allows. A newly introduced enfilade of openings enlarges the kitchen, connects flexible living spaces and connects the kitchen with the outside. The project includes a light touch scenography for event spaces and improvements to the more public circulation spaces of the building.
