GP House is a flat located in the historic centre of Forlì. The building was built in 1879-1880 in an area which was taken up by the old slaughterhouse and partly by an urban garden. The complex, subjected to a restorative intervention, was transformed into a residential system composed by terraced houses. There are few elements which have remained from the old building such as the monumental wooden portal, which is the main entrance to the inner courtyard, and the exposed wooden beams inside every single flat.


The project consists of a complete redesign of the interior space due to the unattractive and non-functional space distribution of the existing flat.


The refurbishment of the interior space comes from the need to transform the building use from offices to private house. The project involves a new layout of the space: the entrance, a living area and an office with facilities on the ground floor, while the apartment itself, including living room, kitchen, dining room and two bedrooms with bathrooms, is developed on the first floor.

Casa GP è un appartamento nel centro storico di Forlì. L’edificio fu costruito nel 1879-1880 nell’area occupata dal vecchio macello e, in parte, su un’area dedicata ad orto urbano. Il complesso, oggetto di un intervento di restauro, è stato trasformato in un sistema residenziale di case indipendenti a schiera. Della storia di questo edificio rimangono il monumentale portale in legno, ingresso alla corte residenziale interna, e le travi in legno a vista all’interno delle singole abitazioni.


Una distribuzione poco attraente e funzionale di spazi e percorsi ha reso necessario un progetto di rinnovamento completo degli interni.


Il totale rinnovamento degli spazi interni deriva dalla necessità di trasformare la destinazione d’uso, originariamente prevista come uffici, in residenza. Il progetto prevede un nuovo layout degli spazi: al piano terra l’ingresso, una zona living e studio con i servizi, mentre al piano superiore si sviluppa l’appartamento vero e proprio, con soggiorno, cucina e pranzo, due camere da letto e il bagno.
