Baranzate - A Centrality

The project was developed as a part of the Urban Planning and Policy Design Studio at Politecnico di Milano during the exchange semester of SS23. 
It involved a critical understanding of the Greater Metropolitan area of the city of Milan, and indepth studies of its more suburban municipalities. The project explored realistic options to inject the 15 minute neighbourhood experience into Baranzate, one of the least developed and car-centric areas of the city. It proposed strategies to enhance the current "piano di governo del territorio" (development plan) of the region to achieve a 15 minute neighbourhood.
