Torino Fa Scuola: winners announced for school redesign competition
The Torino Fa Scuola competition, launched in December 2016 by Compagnia di San Paolo and Fondazione Agnelli, announced its winners for the revitalization of two Turin middle schools. A team from Enrico Fermi, guided by Alberto Bottero and comprising six other members, earned recognition for their thoughtful design. Meanwhile, Silvia Minutolo's group impressed the judges with their innovative concepts for Giovanni Pascoli. The competition, which attracted 275 entries, awarded €15,000 to the Fermi team and €12,000 to Pascoli, with construction expected to wrap up by the end of the 2019/2020 academic year, as noted by jury chair Francesco Profumo.
