In the suburbs, it is now already clear that in 2050 we will have to live with less: less space, less energy, less comfort, less buildings, less travel, less work, less wealth.
We will have to change our lifestyles and imagine a new formula for the Italian way of life.
Between our well-being and the poverty of others there is a reciprocity that must be considered. We are starting to think that the true quality of life is also to live in a slightly more equal way.
Our project is an alternative to the widespread periphery.

It is a small, compact suburb, tangent to the density of urban centers. It is a multi-storey suburb, made of slabs and containers. Like a building, it is entirely pedestrianized and needs no roads.
All the floors are equivalent and the different functions, individual and collective, find their place indifferently in the built space.
At the same time, floors are potentially all different: the shape of each floor is almost independent of the others (under the minimum rules of a Master(multi)plan), making the final shape of the whole open and unpredictable.
The result is a place where many distinctions, such as indoor and outdoor, public and private, high and low, you and I, are reduced.
A place of physical proximity, for what will be our next primary need: to meet.
