Bresso Vertiport, Milano
2023
The project transforms the existing Bresso Airfield in Parco Nord Milano into a next generation vertiport embedded within a continuous urban landscape. Positioned between the city and the open field, the proposal establishes a clear interface that connects infrastructure, research, and public life.
Two linear volumes housing a research laboratory and a flight academy are elevated above the ground to preserve permeability and maintain the continuity of the park. Below, a recessed layer accommodates hangars and operational spaces directly linked to the runway, ensuring efficient and uninterrupted aircraft movement.
The masterplan organizes circulation into distinct systems where public, academic, and operational flows coexist without conflict. The architecture remains minimal and horizontal, reinforcing a sense of lightness while framing the surrounding landscape.The project redefines the airfield as a forward looking mobility hub that integrates innovation, education, and emerging aerial transport within one of Milan's most significant green environments.
