Italian Landscapes and Domes draw "The Tree of Life"
We designed the "Tree of Life" many times before choosing the one that would become the pavement of "Italia" along the Cardo and under the Pavilion of Italy itself.
We explored many ideas, creating trees with themes of Italian food, Italian cinema and Italian cities.
Finally, using cutouts of aerial photographs of countryside and landscapes from all regions of Italy, we designed the final version of our "Italian Tree of Life", which is used as the floor pattern in the exhibition spaces that speak of Italian products and food. |

The building appears as a friendly and open presence to its population, thanks to a light and organic architecture that contrasts with the solid and compact materiality of the important historical preexisting of Ferrara.
The slim profile of trees enclose the area, creating an intimate and familiar environment, where the building dominates the scene with its sculptural shapes while talks with the surrounding nature by a language inspired by itself.

featuring both innovation and tradition, it is built with the painstaking care and attention
to detail characteristic of artisanal methods coupled with the precision and quality that
comes with technology. The Tina armchair is surprisingly lightweight and sinuous due
to the features and comfort of its natural braiding”.

3. To maintain the monumental quality of the facade and create a more open construction so as to facilitate the better relation of the municipal building and the new square at the back . |
