Alexandra Trofin’s recent project Warmly, from Dragalina shows the thermal rehabilitation of an apartment building in Timisoara, through the city’s Energy Efficiency Service. The North Train Station Esplanade, now known as General I. Dragalina Boulevard, is defined by four apartment buildings designed in the 1960s, as a part of IPROTIM, by architect Geta (Mocănel) Voia. The documentation shows an analysis of the 2024 facade change, the documentation is site-specific, but the process and outcome, already a norm in Romania.
