Casa Marsicola
Fiano Romano (RM)
The building, built in the first decades of the 1900s, is spread over three main floors (ground floor, first floor and second floor) as well as an attic floor. Originally used as a private home, it had an internal distribution characterized by small rooms intended for the kitchen, living room, lounge, closets and bedrooms. Before the intervention, the building was in a rather advanced state of decay. The external facades showed water infiltrations, damaged plaster, rejection of the base and chemical encrustations on the decorative cast iron elements.

The wooden window frames were in poor condition and the electrical and telephone conduits passing through the façades contributed to worsening the aesthetic appearance of the building. The interiors also needed renovation work, with ceilings damaged by water infiltration and the need to adapt the systems. The recovery project involved a series of interventions aimed at restoring the structural and functional integrity of the building, respecting its architectural and historical characteristics.
The most significant interventions that have been carried out concern the external facades, with the restoration of the plaster, moldings and decorative elements. The interiors with the consolidation of the floors, the re-plastering, the restoration of the decorative elements and the adaptation of the electrical, thermal and hydraulic systems. The attic floor, which sees the recovery and renovation to create new usable spaces and interventions regarding accessibility with the installation of a panoramic lift to guarantee accessibility to all floors.
An architecture that blends with the landscape, opening up to the territory and overcoming every barrier,
for a school future without borders...
The renovation also involved a reorganization of the internal spaces to adapt them to the new administrative functions. On the ground floor the entrance hall, the area for the switchboard and the protocol office were created, as well as a room for the lift. The first floor was intended for the offices of the Prime Minister and the councillors, the council room and the toilets. The second floor houses the accounting, secretarial and registry offices. Finally, the attic floor, recovered and renovated, was used as a council room, complete with voting booths and toilets. The recovery project of Casa Marsicola represents a virtuous example of redevelopment of a historic building, combining respect for the original architectural characteristics with adaptation to the functional needs of a modern public building.
