The "Oltre la strada" project aims to regenerate the “Via Milano” area in Brescia on three levels: infrastructural, urbanistic, and socio-cultural. A symbol of the revitalization is the new Teatro Borsoni, located in a former degraded industrial area. Teatro Borsoni redefines the role of a civic theatre as a transformative agent for urban regeneration. The project was inspired by the post-industrial context and the idea of an architecture that draws from the Renaissance, understood as a model of civic and urban design.
