Previous project / Next project
The Ostiense is one of Rome’s most authentic and vital neighborhoods: an area forged by industry, transformed by creativity, overlooking the Tiber. The Tevere Loft Village project was born from a deep listening to this place and the desire to give it back a new urban centrality – contemporary, international, rooted.
The masterplan-for a total of 17.000 sqm of mainly residential use-preserves the load-bearing structure of the Ex Consorzio Agrario as a living testimony to the neighborhood’s identity, and builds around it a quality residential and commercial system capable of responding to a growing housing demand with a supply that is still rare in Rome.

A Habitable Memory
The reinforced concrete structure of the Ex Consorzio Agrario is neither hidden nor rhetorically celebrated: it becomes the living matter of the project. The new volumes are grafted onto it with contemporary precision – steel, glass, metal skins – in a dialogue between temporal stratifications that is the most authentic feature of this intervention and the neighborhood that hosts it.
Four ways of experiencing the city
The Value of Outlooks
The masterplan articulates four distinct housing types, each with its own spatial identity and relationship to its context. The Skyline Residences suspend high above Via Fermi. The River Loft High – an eleven-level tower crowned by a bioclimatic greenhouse – offers unique lofts overlooking the Tiber, without comparison in Rome’s residential offerings. The River Loft Club restores the Ex Consorzio Agrario with generous inter-floors and livable lofts, preserving its industrial charm. The Green Villas offer domestic intimacy and private patios in the quietest part of the lot.
Every volumetric choice is geared toward maximizing the perceived quality and commercial value of the housing: on the Tiber, on Via Fermi, on interior gardens. Cubage is concentrated in elevation at the points of greatest visibility, multiplying penthouses, super-attics and terraces that generate a direct value premium on the price per square meter – in a market where demand for quality still exceeds supply.
An open urban system
Residences and commerce are thought of as a single urban design, not as contiguous functions. The curved roof of the shopping center gradually transforms into brise-soleil for residences, adapting permeability and screening to the specific context. Squares, public paths and shared spaces build the diffuse urban quality that makes a residential intervention a place to inhabit – and to desire.
Sustainability as a standard, not an option
Class A energy certification, centralized systems, integrated renewable sources. The bioclimatic greenhouse at the top of the tower is both a technical solution and a visual landmark: the most eloquent sign of a vision that considers environmental quality an integral part of real estate value.
