PIAZZA ILARIA ALPI-LATINA

A modern urban square part of the interventions of the Urban Innovative Action UPPER

In recent years, the committee, supported by the professional group “Young Architects Pontini”, has undertaken a participatory process that has actively involved both adults and children leading to the drafting of a design proposal for the redevelopment of the area, then donated to the City of Latina.Piazza Ilaria Alpi - UPPER LATINA

The design defines the organization of the space into different functional areas: a basketball court, a cavea for outdoor events, an area for dogs, a space for children , an area for outdoor sports, several green areas with lawns and trees…

The community led initiatives of the piazza are narrated by some protagonists in one of the UPPER stories realised by Tesserae during the Urban Innovative Action project.

Le serre dei giardini margherita

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.

ALAMAR, CUBA

Alamar is a new city built in the 1970s in the outskirts of La Habana, Cuba, mostly with rudimental prefabricated technologies inherited from the soviets. It has been put in place through self-construction teams of 32 citizens employed in the so called microbrigadas: a system affecting not only the way the physical environment has been produced, but also the social texture formed in the process.
