The structure serves as a gateway to the city of Florence, embodying and expressing its identity. It stands at a delicate threshold between city and landscape, where architecture intersects with infrastructure.

The project reinterprets the figurative identity of Tuscan architecture: restrained volumes, clear tectonics, geometric rigor, and traditional materials. Like a contemporary orangery or a fragment of a historical “Spedale,” the building evokes memory and belonging through section, shadow, and
