Conscious spaces

Francesca Beatrice Gagliardi and Federico Rossi

Architecture means building a Space that can have a positive impact on those who experience it. In our architecture, the structure tracks the space, organizes the program and generates the building. Every analysis of the contest - political-economic, legislative, real estate and environmental - and begins with a dialogue that evolves during the process, as was the case for

Studio, which looks out onto the Portrait Milano courtyard. With Sole we discussed the principles that she wanted to introduce to the jewelry world, turning it into space. For her, pieces of jewelry are organisms that follow principles, such as the deformation of matter, distortion and illusion. The intention was to delve into the relationship between the display cabinets and the items on display through designing the space generated by the three-dimensional surfaces of the display cabinets themselves within which space. The wooden sub-structure of the display cabinets was crafted by Contrada degli Artigiani, a center of excellence for the social inclusion of young people who are experiencing hard social, economic and personal situations in an example of advanced and aware craftsmanship, the product of our time: a combination of manual traditions and innovative technology
