Since 2014, in the heart of the Giardini Margherita park in the city of Bologna 500 m² of abandoned greenhouses and 3000 m² of open-air area have been the subject of an incremental regeneration process that has given rise to Le Serre dei Giardini, a veritable ‘nursery’ of ideas: here desirable, sustainable and inclusive futures are brought closer to people through the realisation of tangible projects that propose a rethinking of the relationship between urban space, human beings and the natural environment.
