Project
AP180.S1.1987.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the unrealized design proposal for the Sperone del Guasco, in Ancona. Riva worked on this project in 1987. The project was commissioned in the context of the exhibition "Nine project projects for nine Cities" organized by the Milan Triennale. It consisted of a walled pathway climbing the Guasco hill to the San Ciriaco cathedral. Riva's proposal was later presented in the exhibition "Umberto Riva, sistemazioni urbane" in 1993, at the Pinacoteca civica Francesco Podesti in Ancona. The project series contains studies and design development drawings, including elevations, sections, and plans. It also includes a project description.

Description:
views of schematic, design development, presentation, and publication drawings; many of the views of schematic, design development, and presentation drawings show drawings that are not otherwise present in the project documents; the views of schematic, design development, and presentation drawings show different schemes for site layouts, and for types and juxtaposition of dwellings; some of these drawings were possibly redrawn for presentation or publication purposes; there are views of an incomplete set of numbered presentation drawings for floor plans and a section, inscribed with the date 1969, which are not otherwise present in the project documents; there are views of drawings for a reurbanisation project for the Southgate Housing project by Rodrigo Perez de Arce, which was exhibited and published in the early 1980s; some of these views were also used to illustrate Stirling's published Southgate project; there are also views of the building site and of the exterior of the completed buildings; there is one colour negative with an exterior view of the completed buildings; there are also views of freehand site plans of urban architecture, including the Royal Crescent in Bath, England
