<\/p>\nVia Urbana, located in Rome’s Monti district, retraces the route of an ancient road, the Vicus Patricius, which was the site of aristocratic residences in the days of the Roman Republic and the Empire.<\/p>\n
The property at number 152 dates back to the second half of the 19th century. In 1876, it was the Manzoni Theater, which was transformed into a cinema in 1932, and was then converted into a printing plant for the newspaper Il Messaggero in 1962. <\/p>\n

Via Urbana 152, Rome<\/p>\n
The building had fallen into disuse before it was acquired a few years ago by Navarra Iniziative Immobiliari (a company belonging to the Gruppo Italiana Costruzioni that is involved in real estate development), in order reclaim the building and convert it for residential use.<\/p>\n
Designed by the studio 3C+t Capolei Cavalli Architetti Associati, the restoration and transformation of the building on Rome’s Via Urbana 152 into a high quality residential destination has involved numerous preliminary archaeological surveys, a given because of the area’s central position and historical importance.<\/p>\n

The project has a decisive impact with its offering of dwellings that are designed to the highest quality standards. They are differentiated by size\u2014from studio apartments to vast residences and duplex dwelling\u2014and this\u00a0best\u00a0describes the varied complex, where a great deal of attention\u00a0has been paid\u00a0to the finishes and the\u00a0components of the residences.<\/p>\n

The designers and the developer chose RiFRA for all the bathrooms in the complex.<\/p>\n

The core of the restoration project unfolds in the courtyard. It is the space, rectangular in plan, onto which most of the residences overlook from a near continuous balcony, suggesting a kind of loggia, as in an open-air theater. <\/p>\n

The Inner Courtyard<\/p>\n
The structure of the balconies with their metal girding and parapets, together with the luxuriant presence of plantings make for a spectacular invasion, comparable to an open-air dining room where people can get together in the midst of stone seating areas, greenery, and flower boxes, and an entire green wall acts as a backdrop, providing even a scenographic quality to the space. <\/p>\n
