Rethinking Happiness, Biennale di Venezia

Haz a los demás lo te gustaría que te hicieran a ti. Nuevas realidades para cambiar los estilos de vida. Nos enfrentamos a un futuro en muchos casos, lleno de incertidumbres; al mismo tiempo, sin embargo, somos conscientes de los muchos problemas que tenemos por delante: la lista es larga, pero sólo por mencionar algunos, tenemos que hacer frente a la integración, la seguridad personal, la seguridad alimentaria, la seguridad energética y las fuentes, la economía, la seguridad de los desechos, la seguridad de los recursos, la degradación del barrio, etc... Para luchar contra nuestros miedos tenemos que encontrar la manera de proceder con una planificación sensible, creativa e interesante que pueda producir ideas, propuestas y respuestas capaces de garantizar una mejora de la calidad de vida, para nosotros, para nuestros hijos y la gente que nos rodea. Es una idea de la felicidad que construimos al arremangarnos, y que es generada por diferentes personas que comparten la intención de vivir juntos para crear nuevas comunidades. Esta idea se traduce en cuatro nuevos lugares, cada uno de ellos narrado a través de cuatro modelos hiperrealistas imágenes y dibujos.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. New realities for changing lifestyles.
We face a future in many cases full of uncertainties; at the same time, however, we are aware of the many problems in front of us: the list is long, but only to mention some we must tackle integration, personal safety, food safety, energy safety and sources, economy, waste safety, resources safety, suburb degrade and so on… To fight our fears we need finding the way to proceed with a sort of sensible, creative and interesting planning that could produce ideas, proposals and answers able to guarantee an upgrading of life quality, for us as well as for our children and the people around us. It is an idea of Happiness that we build by rolling up our sleeves, and which is generated by different people all sharing the intent of living together to create new communities. This idea translates into four new places, each narrated trough four hyperrealistic models, pictures and drawings.

The 4 projects

New communities, new polarities.
How a small center becomes a large center.

An international corporation moves its headquarters to the industrial zone of a town in the Alpine foothills. About one thousand persons are employed there, most of whom are young creative professionals from all over the world. In an abandoned area in the town center, a new neighborhood is created where this alien community can find room to integrate and to become a resource for the territory.

A campus in the fields.
Venice agri-techno valley.

The Venetian lagoon offers amazing landscapes and incredible biodiversity. A young group that works on innovative start-ups connected with new technologies decides to utilize a large agricultural property surrounded by water, as a settlement where about 250 young people can live and work. This leads to the possibility of developing a new campus model, in a situation of nutritional and energy self-sufficiency: agriculture, vegetable gardens, tourism and technology can thus coexist in the same environment.

Superbazar.
A place to live, meet, buy, sell, swap.

On the outskirts of Milan, near the northern expressway, a new subway station is being built, intersecting with the metropolitan rail bypass. This is an opportunity to invent a new public space that hosts functional activities of neighborhood life, like: daycare center, library, kitchen sharing, outdoor cinema, concert hall, work lounge, outdoor market, skate park, rent hotel. Above the porticoes there is a complex of small housing units and low-cost work spaces designed for students and immigrants, who share a similar economic condition. This facility can take advantage of the wide range of services installed in this location.

Rural urbanism.
The city enters the countryside, the countryside enters the city.

One hour from Shanghai, a large rural territory with an ancient agricultural tradition is crushed between a growing industrial zone and a new city. The idea is to create an agricultural park of 4 sq km inhabited by 8000 persons with low-density residential structures, preserving the agriculture and offering green spaces for the inhabitants. The project calls for a group of elevated buildings on the streets, to create a perpendicular grid that floats over the countryside. In the middle of this “agricultural central park” there are specialized farms that produce crops for the sustainable, profitable development of the countryside. The challenge is to create a new community with shared services, new activities and relationships, in tune with the territory.
