ABSTRACT

The author examines, as her thesis in Architecture, the case of the Rock of Nogarole (in particular the stately mansion), a medieval court in the rural countryside of Verona - Italy, and aims at assessing whether there might be a contact point between the will of conservation and the current needs of efficiency and energy saving.

A responsible “compatible re-use” should pursue, in addition to objectives of accuracy, congruity and compatibility, also goals regarding energy sustainability, without an instance will prevail in a systematic way on the others, conceiving the object, and its context, as a cultural and environmental resource and, as such, protect them with compatible strategies.

The building, at the time of drawing up, was devoid of any plant, and this resulted in the problem of housing ducts: the project simulation opted for a system with underfloor heating and heat pump with geothermal vertical probes, which also produces hot water, and used, for distribution to the various floors, existing paths used. The tile covering has been fitted with a PV system integrated in the new pan-tiles.

The only intervention on the existing stratigraphy (mixed brick and stones walls, wooden-beam floor, structural brick or decorative wattle vaults) allowed to halve the Epi index retaining, however, most of the existing plasters, frames and wooden doors, terracotta floors and part of pan-tiles reused as layer blanket bringing the building went from an energetic class G to B.
