The project, born from the collaboration between Hypereden and Frantoio Sociale, promotes urban transformation as a collective and collaborative activity using self-construction and the reuse of waste materials as a vehicle for dialogue, a sense of belonging and care for the environment
In 2022, a fountain was built in the Lea Garofalo community garden in Milan, in collaboration with the association Giardini in Transito: a symbolic element and at the same time a place of aggregation.
Cantiere Aperto builds in a specific public space an artifact suggested by the community itself with a sustainable construction process. A little fountain, a vase, a bench, a flowerbed, a floor: a set of urban furniture is the potential subject of this collective urban practice, which invites the construction of a new form of coexistence, care and conservation, production and making through participation between inhabitants.
During the Festival Concentrico 2023 in Logroño, elements were made in collaboration with Esposkate to be placed in the square during events and skate tournaments, providing the public with information on the construction process and sustainability issues.
