CARITAS INTERNATIONALIS PAVILION - EXPO 2015

Milan
2015

Realization of the Caritas Internationalis Pavilion for EXPO Milano 2015. The plot occupied by Caritas, placed in a strategic position along the main path of the Expo 2015 site, presents a number of different features: an outdoor paved area that greets visitors, a covered area, and a green area. The structure of simple steel shapes was covered with a white plastic fabric. An artwork entitled Energia, realized by the German artist Wolf Vostell in 1973, was the main attraction in this space. Energia is a large installation with great narrative force that was constructed out of a Cadillac loaded with war weapons surrounded by pieces of bread.

 

 
 
 

REFETTORIO AMBROSIANO

Milan
2015

The project concerned the renovation of the former Greco theatre, which had been built during the 1930s in Milan. The main goal was to design a canteen and a kitchen with a big copper hood.
The concept for this project was a result of collaborating with a group of professionals from the Politecnico di Milano, which also engaged internationally renowned designers and artists, who contributed with their work to upgrade this useful space. Throughout this redevelopment, the architectural space was enriched with pieces of art and design. In this way, many artists and designers made a significant gesture of beauty and culture.
