    Pocket Sicily: between Myths and Topos

    Biophilia and Topophilia design practice fostering the connection between people and place

    Italy
    “Pocket Sicily: between Myth and Topos”, a botanical garden that is closely linked to the unique location within the Etna Park in Sicily, Italy. The territory of Mount Etna, with its regular, sometimes dramatic eruptions, is truly a veritable magical register of Sicily. Surrounded by diverse landscape geographies, and imbued with mythological traditions, the Etnean context inspired the manifestation of this educational and recreational garden that inherits both biophilia and topophilia essences.

    REDEFINE THE EXISTING

    REDEFINE THE EXISTING: research-based platform for regenerative built environment

    Lithuania
    REDEFINE THE EXISTING is a research based platform for regenerative built environment focused on (mentally and physically) neglected socialist legacy. The trend of renovation does not provide any sustainable benefits in the long-term perspective, nor does it see potential for circular-based reuse. Thinking within today’s global sustainability and circular design agenda, the platform acts locally aiming to critically rethink the space and its influence on people reusing socialist building stock.

The project proposes a collective garden restaurant that educates in slowness and exchange between individuals and with nature through cultivating, cooking, and consuming together.

    Matter the Matters: How to Recondition the Unjust Conditions

    Spain
    Since December 2019, we have seen many of the assumptions about society, culture and economy upturned or broken. Evidently, we are inside a period of disruption that neither began nor will end with the COVID-19 pandemic and in which the larger social-economic-ecological crises of our time become vivid and present. Therefore, a comprehensive and profound analysis of the crises and exploring the possibilities of just working and living environment today have never been as urgent as it is now.

    Reinterpretation of city infrastructure

    Can infrastructural complexes become an incorporated part of the city and help build a community.

    Slovenia
    Why are crucial infrastructural buildings treated as degraded areas that need to be eradicated from urban areas and transferred outside of cities where they destroy vast rural landscapes? Because a city cannot live without this areas, our project treats them as organs in the human body. We are capable of regenerating them and give them a second life where they keep the city running and also become an integrated part of the communitys fabric.
