Campus Sanpaolo has been the University Residence of the City of Turin since 2015, designed to offer students, teachers, and researchers a modern, sustainable, safe, and high-quality environment at affordable prices.
Built on an area of approximately 8,000 square meters, the facility offers 536 beds. It is part of the broader “Turin University City” plan promoted by the current local administration and represents, to date, the main intervention in terms of the number of housing units.
The Campus, developed by Fabbrica SGR and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti SGR through the ERASMO Fund—with the social security agency INPS as a key financial partner—was designed as two building structures of 7 and 4 floors above ground. It features an “L-shaped” configuration set back from the line of Via Caraglio, with the goal of creating a “courtyard” open to the City.
The residence offers a well-balanced mix of housing types, for a total of 536 beds divided into single and double rooms and apartments consisting of 1 or 2 rooms, in addition to 47 guest rooms: each accommodation is provided furnished and equipped with private bathrooms and Wi-Fi connection. All apartments are equipped with a kitchenette, while for the rooms, common kitchens located on the 4th, 5th, and 6th floors are available to students, as well as a large common kitchen overlooking the Campus’s internal plaza.
Following the example of the best international models, Campus Sanpaolo offers a mix of housing solutions and services including: study rooms, common areas, internet points, Wi-Fi connection, print center, bar, gym, coin-operated laundry, parking, bike sharing, and 24/7 security.
The facility was built according to standards of excellence in safety, accessibility, environmental impact reduction, and energy saving. The design of a high-performance building envelope, combined with careful planning of technical systems using photovoltaic and geothermal systems, allows the building to achieve Energy Class A.
The Campus is managed by Sharing Srl, a young company promoted by D.O.C. s.c.s., which already manages Italy’s first temporary housing project in Turin at Via Ivrea 24 (470 beds) — SHARING | TORINO — and is developing new models for university residences. The manager applies private contract schemes with affordable rent rates, in compliance with the maximum tariffs indicated in the call for tenders issued by the City Council.
