This contribution centres on Pier Luigi Nervi's 1934 project for “Una Casa Girevole” (A Rotating House).

Abstract

This contribution centres on Pier Luigi Nervi's 1934 project for “Una Casa Girevole” (A Rotating House). A never-built construction pertaining to the body of his lesser-known works, it presents original solutions for the shape, structure, distribution, and mechanical/electrical systems that were taken up and refined over time, especially in some of his creations in Rome. Among the results of an analysis of his drawings for the first plan and later variations, we present a digital model that can also be used from a kinematic point of view via augmented reality.
