Quartiere "La Falchera" Torino

In 1950 the Ina Home Management entrusted the urban project (and the building rules) to a group of designers (S. Molli Boffa, M. Passanti, N. Renacco, A. Rizzotti) with G. Astengo as the leader. According to the plan, 30 hectares are urbanized with residences for 1,446 houses and 6,000 inhabitants. The buildings, on average 60-70m long, and 3 floors high, are convex-angle polygons mainly facing south and forming large green areas inside, (which occupies about 70% of the entire surface). All services (schools, public buildings, church) overlook the large central square.
