Consortium Land invited Aristide Antonas, Patrick Berger and Junya Ishigami to imagine architectural constructions based on the relationship between man and animal.

At the 17th International Architecture Exhibition (Venice Architecture Biennale 2021), they present Patrick Berger's Bird Pavilion, an original installation conceived as a preview of an evolving ethological architectural site, a plot in the town of Grancey Le Château, Burgundy, France.

The area is one of the first sites of evolving ethological architecture in France, and the project was born from the following observation: architecture can be the vehicle of a symbiosis between species.

Le Corbusier renewed

At the 4th International Congres of Modern Architecture (CIAM) the architect Le Corbusier stated that the sky, the trees, steel and concrete where the most important elements of urbanism. The building in which the recently restructurated studio-apartment of Le Corbusier himself is situated, completely responds to these elements. Each apartment is separated by a concrete slab that arrives horizontally at the glass curtain facade, foreseen of a sun-control system. Each apartment thus can profit from the natural lights given by nature. Watch the documentary by Olivier Lemaire that explains you all about this project.

Night Fever. Designing Club Culture 1960 – Today

Currently, at Vitra Design Museum is in display a unique exhibition about nightclubs, a typology of space rarely discussed in architecture magazines and media. In a chronological way the exhibition explores the emergence of nightclubs as spaces for experimentation with interior design, new media, and alternative lifestyles. The exhibition examines also the type of locations where the nightclubs are born and their impact on the surrounding city life and urban fabric. The tour starts in the 60’ with famous clubs, the Electric Circus (1967) in New York, or Space Electronic (1969) in Florence and ends up to present day, including contemporary new concepts of OMA and Detroit-based designers Akoaki, who have created a mobile DJ booth called »The Mothership«.

NEW ENTRANCE MUSEO POLDI PEZZOLI

In 2015 the Museo Poldi Pezzoli has been renovated through three major interventions, one of which was a new entrance, realized thanks to a project by Massimo Curzi and with the support of Fondazione Cariplo. The piece of furniture designed by Massimo Curzi, considers quality of the space, luminous and transparent, as well as dialogues with the entry staircase and its historical fountain. Its design started from the idea of assembling many volumes, each with different function, specific size, a particular material and a special machining. The intention is of having containers that require an unexpected gestuality, so that when pushed, slidden or pressed, visitors can be surprised and witness the sense of its many dimensions.

ORSONERO COFFEE

Canadian Brent Jopson took a gamble and opened last November a specialty coffee joint with modern extraction methods in Milan. Thirty square meters and three big windows, at a corner in Porta Venezia were designed by the architecture firm Forestieri Pace Pezzani. The concept behind the design is New World coffee houses: light wood paneling, sleek lines, minimal decor. Behind the counter a La Marzocco espresso machine and various implements for alternative extraction methods, like v60, aeropress, cold brew filter coffee and French press. Currently Orsonero is a coffee bar per se, no cakes or food served, only croissants for breakfast, baked at Loria bakery.

DIREMANGIAREPROGETTARE

The Spazio MIL in Sesto San Giovanni will host on Thursday 25th the concluding event of the co-design workshop Dire Mangiare Progettare, where 10 classes from the schools of Caronno Pertusella and Lissone teamed up with 10 designers to reflect on nutrition, sustainability and interculturality through participatory design.

Among others, Brocca Malandrina by Silvia Cafora e Vorrei un ascensore che ci porte al mare by PlayArchitecture. Both projects derive from observing children’s behaviour during lunchtime. The first one is a pitcher with a simple low-tech mechanism that does not leak water in case of fall. Thus it solves one of the mistakes that often occur at lunch... The second one is an wall installation with three devices, a vertical flipper, a shredding stool and a magic aquarium. The three devices engage kids - especially the ones who finish before others - to transform waste after lunch playfully.

ALBERGO DIURNO VENEZIA

Albergo Diurno Venezia, a project of Piero Portaluppi, is an elegant and functional service center for travelers built between 1923 and 1925. After decades of abandonment, the space was reopened to the public in 2016 thanks to a valorisation and recovery project initiated by the volunteers of Fondo Ambiente Italiano. Prior to the restoration work, FAI has involved in a multidisciplinary research project the Università degli Studi la Statale and Politecnico di Milano. Their research, a kaleidoscope of stories and images, was collected into a single book by Lucia Borromeo Dina, Emanuela Scarpellini, Stefano Della Torre e Roberto Dulio and published by Effigi Edizioni.

The book was presented at Villa Necchi Campiglio on the 4th of May 2017.
