      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - Platforms House</image:title>
      <image:caption>For the refurbishment of the apartment we used layers of different platforms to divide the original house in two apartments and a suspended staircase to connect the main floor to the attic as a new bedroom. In the south apartment the platforms are creating bed’s alcoves in two different levels In the northern apartment the wooden platform instead is creating the living area with a sunken space for the kitchen.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - Mezzanine Apartment - Siracusa</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mezzanine Apartment - Siracusa This small apartment is a result of the merging of two rooms with high ceiling, that allowed to create two new bedrooms in the new mezzanine. A rectangular mezzanine was simply too small in depth for a queen size bed, so we decided to use a triangular and a quarter of circle shapes in order to gain some more depth for the beds. A spiral staircase minimises the footprint of occupation in the living area downstairs. The new mezzanine was treated as a ‘inner’ facade, allowing for freedom on the design of railings, patterns and shapes. The handrails of the mezzanine are tributes-replicas of the waterfront’s handrails of Ortigia, quoting a piece of the city inside an interior.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - Montecatini House</image:title>
      <image:caption>The project is about the refurbishment of an apartment located in Montecatini Terme in Tuscany. The owner is currently living and working for a big Italian corporation in Qatar and he is planning his future return near his family in Italy. The property, located in the first floor, has a longitudinal structural wall that divides the apartment in two large areas. We used this existing element to organise the night and day area, separating the living area from the bedrooms. This super-wall has been treated as an imaginary curtain, decorated with shapes and strips. Two small new patios will give an intimate outdoor space to the apartment.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - 2016 Place Vendome Paris Repossi Store with OMA</image:title>
      <image:caption>The proposal for the 90 square meter Repossi flagship on Place Vendome divides the store into three distinct spaces – contextually referred to as street, gallery and salon. Based on the idea that the collection of jewelry will be experienced and purchased at three different speeds – fast, slow, very slow - each floor responds to the different paces of shopping. The ground floor is the most public space. It works as an extension of the street providing a quick experience of the store. The first floor is a gallery, the level where the entire Repossi collection is exhibited. The basement is a salon. The most intimate space of the boutique, it allows customized service for clients and patient exploration of special pieces. The underlying idea for the design was to synthesis architecture and display, using the whole space as a stage for Repossi’s production. Unconventional materials were used, emphasizing this relationship and pulling away from the typical jewelry store. Special colored mirrors developed in collaboration with Dutch designer Sabine Marcelis introduces diverse degrees of reflections and color refractions. Aluminum cladding – both plain and foam - fold over the volume of the staircase and expand onto each floor. Movement is an integral component of the project. The wall on the ground floor is conceived as a gigantic rotating billboard with three alternating sides: a bronze colored mirror, a traditional mirror, and a display system. Developed in collaboration with Italian-based manufacture, Goppion, the kinetic installation is both display and architecture, transforming the space while adapting to alternating functions. When the jewelry is not displayed, the ground floor is transformed into a pure void, leaving the space free for unlimited occupancies. In the overcrowded retail context of Place Vendome, a “void” is the ultimate form of luxury. The staircase, an imposing presence in the 90 square meter store, is designed by overlapping two vertical systems: a solid excavated mass that extends between the ground floor and the basement, and a light suspended tread floating between the ground floor and the first level. Liberated from the traditional requirements of jewelry display, the new flagship store creates an immersive setting, where jewelry is subtly embedded into an architectural void.

      <image:caption>“We must treat windows as stories, thinking that we can open them to all the stories we want” Colum McCann This was our starting point to the refurbishment of this house. The property, located on the top of a rocky hill, was completely functional when we arrived, but we realized that there was no thinking in the way the house was looking at the beautiful landscape that was surrounding the property. On one side the Mount Etna, on the other side the golf of Plemmirio and in the other direction the magnificent Lagoon of Syracuse and the Island of Ortygia. Windows were added in meaningful locations. An infinite pool is added on the roof terrace, that was completely abandoned and underestimated. In the top of the house the views are unified into a panoramic scene of the further east of Sicily. Another round pool is on the Olive and Orange Trees field surrounded by nature. The solid pink stucco complements the succulent and mediterranean plant vegetation that surrounds the villa.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - Tiny Pink House</image:title>
      <image:caption>“We must see windows as portals to stories, each one offering access to the narratives we crave.” — Colum McCann This philosophy guided our approach to refurbishing this tiny house, which had served as a tool shed for the German owner on the grounds of their main villa near Syracuse, Sicily. Previously, the tiny house had simply blended in with traditional Sicilian countryside architecture, lacking a connection to the breathtaking surrounding landscape. Our refurbishment centered on creating a new rounded green window that frames a stunning view of Mount Etna, infusing the small pink house with newfound significance. Inside, we enhanced the space with a checkerboard patterned floor using stones sourced from the Mediterranean region. A large pink stone circle in the flooring acts as a permanent centerpiece, tying together the fresh interior decor.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Architect Studio based in Siracusa, Sicily | Refurbishment | Hospitality| Commercial Space - Rocky House</image:title>
      <image:caption>A renovation in Plemmirio, Syracuse that exposes the existing conditions rather than hiding them. The natural rock becomes the central element of the interior, structuring the layout and defining the atmosphere. Materials follow a simple logic. Striped surfaces, referencing both Daniel Buren and seaside patterns, organize the main domestic programs including the kitchen, the bathroom, and the living area. Hand-made ceramic floors use distinct colors to define functions, guide spatial transitions, and articulate changing levels that adapt to the irregularities of the site. A concrete beam is left exposed, marking the passage toward the sleeping area and reinforcing the presence of the original structure. It is treated with the same directness as the rock itself, which is no longer concealed as it was in the previous configuration. The result is a domestic environment where the natural and the artificial coexist without hierarchy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - Domestic Monuments - Exhibition for DiSè</image:title>
      <image:caption>Exhibition in Palazzo Biscari, Catania, Sicily Moncada Rangel has curated an exhibition for a limited edition furniture collection for the Sicilian company DiSè: DOMESTIC MONUMENTS By revisiting ancestral activities that are repeated every day, each designer contributed with his own critical vision, celebrating an intimate moment of daily life. This collection offers an archipelago of singular approaches that create a collective memory of our present day. Moncada Rangel selected eight daily moments, that were assigned to eight different creatives that worked on the project with different approaches. The aim was to create a heterogeneous collection, not coherent in terms of materiality neither in their design. A collection of monuments on a domestic scale. Ideally all together the eight pieces can shape a single house with each single piece being part of a fundamental element of his program: •1. REST: “Delos Bed” by Arquitectura G (ES) •2. STORE: “Cabinet” by Point Supreme (GR) •3. SHARE: “Numen” by Michael Schoner (DE) •4. HEARTH: “Il Cielo” by Francesco Librizzi (IT) •5. GROOM: “Groom” by OS Δ OOS (NL) •6.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - 2017 Authenti-city (or the Unesco Paradox)  with Formafantasma</image:title>
      <image:caption>Founded 2750 years ago, the city of Syracuse (Siracusa) with its historic center - the island of Ortigia - is a “Tabula Plena”. Since 2005, the city, incredibly rich in layers of history, has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. After 10 years, like most listed places, the old city is faced/blessed with an exponentially increasing number of tourists, but at the same time has lost its informality, authenticity, and most of its residents, gradually morphing into a theme park/resort. In the era of neoliberalism, nostalgic attention to the past is potentially devastating. Overly rigid protective norms and blind bureaucracy force new urbanistic and architectural interventions to look like a frozen and fake pre-WWII image of the city, generating an undefined pastiche of “Non-authenti-city”. The obsession with preserving image ignores substance, content, and structure. The museification of buildings and places does not solve the real issue of maintaining and preserving living urban spaces, but instead transforms their authentic and original diversity into homogenous speculative real estate. The 8 days of workshops and lectures are conceived as a platform for discussion of the future of cultural heritage from both an architecture and design perspective.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - 2012 Syracuse Greek Theatre Scenography with OMA</image:title>
      <image:caption>OMA's scenography features three temporary architectural devices that reinterpret the spaces of Syracuse's Greek Theatre, which dates from the 5th century BCE. The interventions are dramatically exploited and adapted at strategic moments within the summer cycle of plays staged by the Istituto Nazionale del Dramma Antico: Aeschylus's Prometheus Unbound (directed by Claudio Longhi), Euripides' Bacchae (dir. Antonio Calenda) and Aristophane's The Birds (dir. Roberta Torre). The first intervention, the Ring, is a suspended walkway that completes the semi-circle of the amphitheatre, encompassing the stage and the backstage, and giving actors an alternative way of entering the scene. The Machine is a fully adaptable backdrop for the plays: a sloping circular platform, seven meters high, mirroring the amphitheater. The backdrop can rotate, symbolizing the passage of 13 centuries during Prometheus's torture; split down the middle, it can also be opened, allowing the entrance of the actors, and symbolizing dramatic events like the Prometheus being swallowed in the bowels of the earth. The Raft, a circular stage for the actors and dancers, reimagines the orchestra space as a modern thymele, the altar that in ancient times was dedicated to Dionysian rites.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - DIONISYAN WALL PARK Fragmented archaeological sites and urban realities: a strategy for the northern waterfront and the green belt for the city of Syracuse</image:title>
      <image:caption>INTRODUCTION The DIONYSIAN WALL was built by the tyrant Dionysius I of Syracuse between 402 BC and 397 BC to fortify the plateau of Epipolis, in order to maintain the widest control of the city allowing the sighting of any enemy threat. The Wall completely encircled the ancient city of Syracuse (founded in 734 BC) for a perimeter of 27 km and gathered at the highest point at the Eurialo Fortress. It is considered the largest in the Classical World, even surpassing the Aurelian Walls of Rome. Built with limestone, extracted from the nearby stone quarries (Latomie) that arise in large numbers next to the fence path. Due to their historical importance, it’s among the heritage sites of the city, listed by UNESCO. The Park has been established in 2008 on the disused area of a former railway track used till the late 90’s. The former railway (now transformed in a runner/bike path) has “protected” this beautiful site from the Italian real estate speculation of the 60’s &amp; 70’s, on the west side of the track. Back in the time, the buildings have been built having in consideration that they were overlooking a noisy train track, meaning an unqualified condition despite the scenic sea background. Many of those buildings are social housing that have a blind facade towards the sea. The linear park (8 km) starts at the War Memorial square, passing through to a former Tonnara (dismissed tuna fish factory) and arrives to the ancient Porta Scea in Targia. PROJECT The municipality of Syracuse has decided to regenerate the area with a cultural masterplan, providing the park with art installations. In 2016, ten sculptures were installed in the area, designed by both local and international artists, but unfortunately some of them have been vandalized or damaged by the weather. The park is completely lacking basic infrastructure. We think this project is an opportunity to REFOUND the area, providing some functional, permanent installations. Starting from the the fascination of Ettore Sottsass’s archetypal and primitive project “Metaphors” the ambition is to provide elemental architectural items for a new founded settlement: 1. GATES defining accesses will be developed by the Portuguese Architects: FALA ATELIER 2. ENCLOSURES defining perimeters will be developed by the Chilean Architects: PEZO VON ELLRICHSHAUSEN 3. PLATFORM defining a suface will be developed by the Italian Architects: DOGMA 4. SHELTER providing shadow and weather protection with a volume will be developed by the Belgian Architects: OFFICE KERSTEN GEERS &amp; DAVID VAN SEVEREN All Pictures by ©️Alberto Moncada</image:caption>

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - Design for Celebration</image:title>
      <image:caption>A temporary installation at the Restaurants I Banchi di Ragusa in collaboration with our students from Made Program The Festivals of Sicily have always been an important moment for its communities in order to celebrate the passages of natural cycles in the agricultural life. These perpetual rituals are a necessity for every society to build their own identity. At the same time they bring people together, in order to finds their sense of being in the world. Just like the festivities, every meal is a celebration in itself. This project is a triptych that celebrates three different Sicilian festivals, that communicate universal values. WELCOME “WELCOME” has its roots in the celebration of Saint Joseph’s horse parade of Scicli’s village, that happens yearly around March 19th. The festival has its roots in the biblical event of Mary and Saint Joseph crossing the desert by horse, escaping from a possible murder in Egypt. The cavalcades, richly decorated with colorful flowers, illustrate the arrival of the holy characters to a safe location. In a contemporary perspective, the project “Welcome” embodies the current migration fluxes with a greeting design proposal, reinterpreting elements and decorations of Scicli’s Cavalcade. Art Direction MONCADA RANGEL Design Students: Gianluca Cortese , Teresa Ficara, Dalila Musso, Chiara Maria Russo, Giada Sciascia LOVE “LOVE” is inspired by the festival of Saint Paul from 27th to 29th of June in the village of Palazzolo Acreide. This installation recreates the climax of this celebration, when the main church of the village “explodes” on a backdrop of colors, represented by millions of colorful dynamic paper ribbons and fire-work. The LOVE project wants to evoke that overwhelming moment of happiness and peace. The colored stripes overwhelm the viewer’s eyes, arousing a feeling of freedom, lightheartedness and LOVE. Art Direction: MONCADA RANGEL Design Students: Carola Campisi, Giordano Casaretti, Michele Cicero, Luana Rodoligo, Noemi Zito SPRING “SPRING” is a project that translates, in form of an installation, the religious celebration in the village of San Biagio Platani, during Sunday’s Easter. The community is staging every year an architectural scenography, covering the main street with astonishing temporary structures, built with breads, canes and seeds celebrating the arrival of Spring.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - Scarcity  Thinking beyond abundance</image:title>
      <image:caption>The word crisis comes from the Greek Krisis, meaning choice, decision. The scarcity of resources and the environmental disaster upon us ask for an urgent and radical rethinking of the design disciplines. Educated in a world of abundance and infinite possibilities, as designers and architects we are now asked to make more considered choices in the use and sourcing of materials, in the production processes we use and in the ways we apply our design skills. Learning to love and to strive for scarcity might be the best way to help us radically rethink the ways we, as humans, inhabit planet Earth. In fact, limitations often prove to be the most favorable ground for the development of new disruptive ideas. Starting from an exceptional island like Sicily, which combines breathtaking landscapes and historical architecture with equally overwhelming deficiencies in services and management of human and natural resources, we would like to propose with this year's Made Labs a reformulation of preconceived positions on design and architecture in the light of the idea of Scarcity, in the attempt to learn to love and live in these troubled times.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - WELCOME  (borderless visions on design, architecture and visual arts) with Formafantasma</image:title>
      <image:caption>In 1971 Victor Papanek published his seminal text "Design for the Real World". The book thoughtfully examines the necessity of addressing 'real human needs' as opposed to the 'invented needs' created by the market. Papanek clearly exemplified how design can be incorporated into many areas of life and how it can be a tool to fight social injustice. In the era of Trump's wall, Brexit, and waves of backward-looking populism, Papanek’s conception of design as socially inclusive and welcoming of multidisciplinary contributions is as relevant as ever. In our unstable, soul-searching, confused Europe, constantly questioning the essence of its shared culture within the expanse of its territory and its ethnic diversity, climate change and diminishing biodiversity are still open to multiple contributions, and interdisciplinary exchange is simply a necessity. Indeed, the preservation of diversity goes well beyond the recognition of its beauty. Rather, it is urgent that we ensure the emergence of intelligent design proposals. As normalization and cultural standardization persist in their attack on the rich diversity of vitality, for the 2019 edition of Made Labs, the city of Syracuse will welcome a group of designers, architects and artists who, each in their own way, celebrate inclusivity as an essential element of design. MADE Labs will be hosted in the main building of the Academy, a XIX century building, as well as other venues in the heart of the island of Ortigia, the historic center of Siracusa, Sicily.

      <image:title>ART DIRECTION - ART DIRECTION COSMO Architecture Festival - Siracusa Pantalica</image:title>
      <image:caption>COSMO is a festival of temporary architecture that unfolds across the city of Siracusa and the territory of Pantalica, transforming them into an open-air laboratory for reading landscape, history, and contemporary forms of living. Curated by architect Francesco Moncada and the studio Moncada Rangel, COSMO explores architecture as a cultural practice capable of generating dialogue between past and present, permanence and temporality, context and imagination. The festival is part of the broader project Siracusa Pantalica. Cultural and Touristic Route from the Neapolis Archaeological Park in Siracusa to the Necropolis of Pantalica, promoted by the Municipality of Siracusa and funded through a public call by the Italian Ministry of Tourism aimed at enhancing UNESCO-listed cultural landscapes. COSMO constructs a physical and conceptual itinerary between Siracusa and Pantalica, two foundational places of the Mediterranean world. Through temporary installations, performances, and spatial interventions, the festival offers a unique experience of architecture and landscape, inviting the public to observe familiar places through a new lens. The name COSMO derives from the Greek kosmos, a term that defined the harmonious order of the world. For the ancient Greeks, the cosmos was not merely the physical universe, but a system of relationships between nature, architecture, community, and shared values. COSMO adopts this original meaning as a framework to interrogate the present, placing historical heritage in dialogue with contemporary practices of architecture, art, and performance. Conceived as a distributed urban laboratory, COSMO invites architects and creatives to intervene through temporary installations that activate existing spaces and return them to the public as places of encounter, reflection, and possibility. These interventions act as spatial manifestos, raising questions about the quality, use, and imagination of public space. The first edition of COSMO is dedicated to the theme Context. Context is understood not as a constraint, but as a living and active condition with which to engage. The invited architects and artists were asked to reflect on Context as a material, cultural, and spatial reality, responding to the specific conditions of Siracusa and Pantalica through site-specific installations and performative actions. In a city such as Siracusa, defined by centuries of stratification, the relationship with heritage is a constant presence. Yet this relationship often remains confined to preservation, leaving limited room for contemporary interpretation. COSMO emerges from the need to open this discussion, proposing temporary architecture as a tool for interpretation rather than imitation, capable of suspending certainties, encouraging new ways of seeing, and generating questions about the spaces we inhabit every day. The three installations of the first edition trace a virtual thread between Siracusa and Pantalica, promoting the territory of Siracusa Pantalica through an alternative model of cultural production addressed to an international audience. By inviting architects and artists whose work has shaped contemporary discourse on architecture, public space, and the relationship between body, landscape, and construction, COSMO positions Siracusa and Pantalica within an international network of research and experimentation, reaffirming architecture as a cultural practice capable of producing vision, dialogue, and awareness.

      <image:title>DESIGN - The Table as Festival</image:title>
      <image:caption>THE TABLE AS A FESTIVAL In a time of digital interactions, real-life moments need to be brought to the center of our daily lives. By revisiting an ancestral activity that is repeated everyday, this project underlines the endurance of that collective performance: Staging life in a Table. Both primitive and contemporary ritual, staging dining rituals represents tangible actions such as socialising, meeting and communicating. This project includes a series of iconic objects that, put on a top of table, solemnise the perpetuation (propagation/endurance) of this never-ending ritual. The banquet is the ultimate intimate moment of the domestic domain, as it celebrates special occasions of life. The moments of conviviality are most of the times commemorated around a table. Events such as anniversaries, birthdays or any other festivity are perpetually ritualised in domestic spaces. Tables are permanent stages, that perform the acts of sharing food with other human beings. “The table as a Festival” solemnises the liturgy of conviviality. Small objects staged on a table became pocket Architecture shaping an utopian feast for a Lilliputian cityscape. TABLE (of) ELEMENTS The COLUMN is the basic archetypical element of Architecture and a perpetual icon often used as a celebrative monument. (FLOWER VASE) The ARCH is one of the most recognisable elements of the ancient architecture. It has been systematically used and developed with ancient Rome and often built as monuments and entrances to celebrate. An abstract gate to enter in the Festival small world. (BOTTLE) The abstract pure form of the DOME, represents the essence of celebrative buildings. The content is hidden inside its pedestal but revealed once the globe is up. (SALT CONTAINER) The CIRCUS in ancient time was the largest venue for Ludi, a spectacular multi-venue celebration with flamboyant parades which marked the purpose of the games. (TABLE CENTER PIECE) The CIRCLE is a timeless form and an universal symbol with extensive meanings. Encircling the space as a balanced principle, the shape stands in non obvious way.

      <image:title>DESIGN - Legacy Concrete Furniture</image:title>
      <image:caption>Legacy is a collection of concrete furniture that plays an homage to the Italian Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi. Starting from the fascination of the honesty and brutal use of the concrete, the vernacular shapes and the clarity of the raw materials, her whole oeuvre became always significant and ageless for us. The connections to local cultures and the ever-blurring borders between art and architecture makes her contribution more than appropriate in our contemporary world. This collection is a tribute to the coexistence of brutal delicacy and to the counterculture of the informal promiscuity typical of the Latin and Mediterranean countries with a modern viewpoint.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Siracusa and Pantalica Syracuse and the necropolis of Pantalica have been included in the Unesco world heritage list since 2005 From the discovery of a megalithic construction, the Anaktoron, it has been hypothesized that Pantalica was an indigenous state expression of the Sicilian civilization prior to the Greek colonization With the growing influence of Syracuse, the settlement and necropolis of Pantalica were abandoned. The two sites are virtually connected by the waterway of the Anapo River and by the still functioning Galermi Aqueduct from the Greek era The presence of an abundance of water in the area was the reason for the settlement of the Sicilian community first and then for the foundation of the Greek city The water and springs of the Anapo River are the unifying element of the two cultures: the prehistoric sicilian culture and the greek culture from the foundation of syracuse A new pedestrian tourist route along the Galermi Aqueduct and a vehicular route along the existing streets, with intermediate stops at dionysian walls and the eurialo fortress will finally unites the archaeological sites of Syracuse and Pantalica The Anaktoron of Pantalica It is a megalithic building with polygonal blocks from the 12th/11th century B.C. discovered by the archaeologist Paolo Orsi in 1889 The construction techniques are similar to the Mycenaean ones and the possibility of exchanges between the two cultures is assumed The building is the most important and impressive Protohistoric construction in Sicily A discreet and respectful installation of stone seats, will allow the use of the space for small concerts and venues during sunset, sunrise and night</image:caption>

      <image:title>URBAN - Targia Vision Masterplan 2020</image:title>
      <image:caption>Targia is located in the outskirts of Syracuse. Its territory is 150 hectares big, two times the size of Ortigia. We have been asked by the owners, the Pupillo family, to envision a new future for their estate and their winery. Emerged on its history and current winery business, MR has proposed a series of possible scenarios, merging four main programs in the Targia Estate: Agriculture, Events, Hospitality and a new Cultural program. The visionary masterplan considers a preservation strategy, that respects the Genius Loci of the site and his 2500 years of history, linked to the history of the city of Syracuse. Our role has been to raise critical questions, in order to re-think the current situation of the estate and propose a new curated cultural program. This new program will re-shape the aura of its territory, recently underrated by the locals, because the existence of a nearby petrol industry, destined to lapse because of future petrol crisis. Is it possible to think neglected, unfinished, unused, empty, blank space as a real resource? Is it possible to think a preservation strategy as a tool for Cultural transformation respecting the Genius loci of Targia? Is it possible to think Targia as an incubator for juxtaposition of Agriculture, Culture, Education, Art, Inclusivity, Experimentation in the south east of Sicily? Could “curated” new programs be a tool to educate an extended community ? Could “curated” new programs transform and re-shape the aura of Targia? Could Targia become the epicentre of the south-east contemporary Sicily and transform a broad territory?</image:caption>

      <image:title>URBAN - Piedi Liberi - Tactical Urbanism Proposal in Syracuse Sicily</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tactical Urbanism is a low cost temporary intervention proposed in many cities as “easy” city repair in order to improve active mobility, increase pedestrian areas, discourage the use of cars removing parking and unnecessary pavement to transform it into green space, etc. Following the current agenda of the Town Hall of Syracuse, that is massively increasing bike lanes and studying a new transport system, we proposed to the current mayor Francesco Italia and his entourage a selection of strategical pedestrian areas in crucial places of the City. The pavements of the proposed locations will be painted by selected artists and creatives in order to create a diffused open-air collection of street-art with functional outdoor furniture (ping pong tables, plant pots, benches and small canopy). All the proposed locations have been selected strategically also because of the existing local commerce, that could benefit by the increase of the pedestrian areas and improvement of the public space around. The proposed locations in Syracuse are: Piazza delle Poste Via Cairoli and Via Palermo Corso Umberto and Villini Largo Calipari Largo Empedocle Piazza Euripide Sbarcadero Santa Lucia Via Pitia Via Val D’Aosta The project is currently under development and we are studying with the municipality possible way of collaboration.</image:caption>

      <image:title>URBAN - Syracuse Levante Waterfront - with Boeri Studio</image:title>
      <image:caption>The project for Siracusa’s waterfront is a reflection upon the nature of the space created between the city and the sea, and on the kind of relationship these two powerful entities establish with time. The purpose of the project is to trigger a more vital and conscious relationship between the city and the sea border. This new relation aims to create a multi-layered space, linked to a dynamic idea of the city, able to put in communication the flows of the port with those of tourism, city life with visitors’ habits, urban space with the maritime customs. We imagine a hybrid but eloquent space, capable of fully interpreting the transition between places so strongly connected; a space that preserves the distinct nature of the sites that it separates, absorbing, meanwhile, resources and energies from both.</image:caption>

      <image:title>URBAN - 2017 Seoullo 7017 Sky Garden with MVRDV</image:title>
      <image:caption>Located in the heart of Seoul, a true plant village has been realised on a former inner city highway in an ever-changing urban area accommodating the biggest variety of Korean plant species and transforming it into a public 983-metre long park gathering 50 families of plants including trees, shrubs and flowers displayed in 645 tree pots, collecting around 228 species and sub-species. In total, the park will include 24,000 plants (trees, shrubs and flowers) that are newly planted many of which will grow to their final heights in the next decade. Seoullo, the Korean name for Skygarden translates to ‘towards Seoul’ and ‘Seoul Street’, while 7017 marks the overpass’ construction year of 1970, and its new function as a public walkway in 2017. The pedestrianised viaduct next to Seoul's main station is the next step towards making the city and especially the central station district, greener, friendlier and more attractive, whilst connecting all patches of green in the wider area. In central Seoul, a true plant village has been realised on a former inner city highway in an ever-changing urban area accommodating the biggest variety of Korean plant species and transforming it into a public 983-metre long park gathering 50 families of plants including trees, shrubs and flowers displayed in 645 tree pots, collecting around 228 species and sub-species. In total, the park will include 24,000 plants (trees, shrubs and flowers) that are newly planted many of which will grow to their final heights in the next decade. Since the project was won by MVRDV in May 2015, the main challenge of the Skygarden has been to transform the existing overpass into a public garden, overlaying a matrix of Korean flora onto the 16m elevated steel and concrete structure. How to transform a 1970’s highway into a Skygarden and how to change the daily life of thousands of people who cross Seoul’s city centre every day? From the start, MVRDV engaged with this need to change the forgotten and existing infrastructure into a green symbol that will become a catalyst for a greener quarter for Seoul. Together with the municipality, local NGO’s, landscape teams and city advisers are committed to accommodating the biggest diversity of flora into a strictly urban condition. New bridges and stairs connect the viaduct with hotels, shops and gardens. Photos by Ossip van Duivenbode</image:caption>

      <image:title>URBAN - Belvedere della Turba -  Ortigia - Siracusa - Sicily</image:title>
      <image:caption>Located in its Historical City Center of Syracuse, in the Island of Ortigia, “Belvedere della Turba” located on Bastion Cannamela features a small Piazzetta by the sea, along the waterfront “Lungomare di Levante”, previously used as an informal parking lot. The project aims to highlight the beauty of this area as a resource for the historical center and transform it in public space, offering a pedestrian area facing the Mediterranea sea. This location was previously occupied by the ancients walls of the city. We hope this project can be an example of how the Lungomare di Levante of Syracuse can be Re-Thinked as Public Space, dedicated to pedestrians and not to cars. We will also reconnect the city to the sea with a new cantilevered staircase to the small beach “Spiaggetta della Turba”. Staging ordinary situations: The space is modest and featured by promiscuous elements assembled through bricolage operations, seemingly arranged along an incoherent trajectory in a subjective coincidence. Three "objet trouvé" rocks serve as reminders of the invisible presence of nature that once existed, and now hidden in the anthropized environment of Ortigia. They can be used as informal benches or table for ordinary situations. In contrast, the circular podium is reminiscent of "Music Kiosks" often found in public plazas in small villages, allowing for informal or improvised performances. The podium offers users an elevated perspective overlooking the sea horizon, the sunrise, Maniace Castle, and the Plemmirio Peninsula. It also serves as a relaxing spot to recline and contemplate the ever-shifting movements of clouds illuminated by the Mediterranean light. Atop the podium, the inscription "Pensare, Planare" ("To Think, To Soar"), gifted by an artist friend, fosters endless conversations and contemplation in front of the stunning seascape. The irregular alignment of paved limestone tiles, following the natural contours of the site, a former Bastion, is accentuated by distinct scattered geometric stone tiles, almost hidden and invisible in the pattern of the pavement: a triangle indicating access to a future staircase that will lead to the currently inaccessible beach, a circle symbolizing solitude within the space, and a perfect square representing an imaginary stage for two individuals engaged in conversation.

One of the key requirements was to provide different seating arrangements for customers so that they could comfortably sit in small or large groups or even as a couple. The first room works as the main entrance and bar. A movable bench provides flexible seating opportunities. In the second room, sturdy metal beams coming perpendicularly out of the wall act as seats and small tables. A silver-grey curtain separates this space from a series of storage cabinets. In the third and final room, a metal frame covered by plywood panels resembles a giant staircase and provides an informal and practical seating solution for larger groups. The bathrooms, with their sound absorbing foam panels and teflon space dividers have an industrial feel.</image:caption>

      <image:title>COMMERCIAL - 2008 Pizza Perez</image:title>
      <image:caption>The restaurant is lodged in the ground floor of a 70's building, in the business district of the city, beside the Archimedes' tomb in Syracuse (Italy). The budget was really low so the client accepted to use very cheap materials, normally used in construction sites, and cover the surfaces of the bathroom with waterproof painting. Ceiling and warehouse-wall are covered by fiberglass, usually used in garage’s canopy, and bar is made just assembling metal painted boxes, that allow to hold the steel shelf. The pavement and kitchen-wall were covered by plywood, used in shipyards, and supported by a metal structure. The space is divided in half by a fiberglass wall. On one side is the fast-food area, where people can drink a beer while waiting for take-away orders to eat at home. On the other side is the slow-food area where you can sit to take your time eating pizzas and drinking wine. The fiberglass wall, totally opened from any side and transparent, is used as an informal display for wine, ingredients and tools used by the restaurant, and as a wardrobe for the client’s coats and bags. In the upside the grid-band hide the speakers for the music and the air conditioning. The design emphasizes the social aspects of meeting for dining. Usually tables and chairs allow customers to sit in closed groups, while interaction between groups is not facilitated. So we decided to minimise the volume occupied by 1 single module/table (a cube 70x70x70 cm) and the distance between modules, so people have to share the same table. The main room is illuminated by circular and linear standard neon used in garages. The main windows are totally opened, allowing customers to use the terrace as an extension of the restaurant in the summer. The graphics (by Point Supreme, Athens ) complement the simplicity of the space; they express and celebrate the variety and richness of taste in the food served. All the ingredients used are mapped and symbolized by colors and codes. Their combinations result in the different pizzas. A very precise and scientific looking matrix, with these ingredients, covers the wall in the seating area. The pizzas are exhibited and arranged according to the season of the year. It offers an abstract overview of all the possibilities of choice. On the wall next to the entrance appears a real size zebra. The zebra is simply the other side of the scientific information; It is colorless, simple in its appearance and it refuses to suggest an explanation. It is simply standing there beautiful, mysterious, surreal and inspiring thoughts and discussions between the customers waiting for a table or some take-away food.

      <image:title>COMMERCIAL - 2010 Wrong Weather shop furniture - Porto</image:title>
      <image:caption>2010 Wrong Weather - Porto In 2010, for the renovation of the concept store Wrong Weather in Porto, Portugal, we design 204 new modular furniture that can be grouped and combined in various ways to reduce or alter the size and character of the space. An “Atlas of Shapes” manual allows the client to arrange different configurations and create archetypical shapes that come out from Algebraic Geometry. The structures are all different in height but constant in length (30 cm), so that each one can stand alone or combined with the rest. A “WAVE” of 48 rectangular small tables, a “SPIRAL” of 36 columns and a “DUNE” of 120 rectangular modular structures are the first installation at the store. The furniture is located in the center of the space, as three different Islands with different kind of merchandise in each shape.</image:caption>
