Palazzo Paladini

Material and pathological survey for the computation of restoration works on an historic facade in Lecce

• The project

  Feasibility Study for the conservative restoration works for the main facade of a historic building in the center of Lecce, carried out in collaboration with Arch. Eugenio Tarantino.

  The building, dating back to the eighteenth century, has considerable historical and architectural value due to a “loggia” decorated by the architect and sculptor Giuseppe Zimbalo, who contributed to the construction of the Basilica of Santa Croce in Lecce.

  The facade has significant problems of stone detachments, gaps, and alveolization, caused by problems of rising damp, emphasized by subsequent worsening maintenance interventions.

  In order to proceed with an economic quantification of the amount of work, an accurate mapping of the degradation and materials that make up the facade layout is carried out, incorporating the NORMAL Commission Lexicon for the description of macroscopic alterations and degradations of stone materials.
