INTERTWINING SPACES Taking into account the general scenario and the collective vision of the group for Biella 2050, this sub-scenario proposes an eclectic urban vision planning, referring to a framework of both micro and macro interventions that seek, through the fluctuation of scales, give a complete dynamic to the city. As a fundamental argument, the project aims to revitalize the constructions that are currently abandoned in order to convert them into symbiotic pieces, where the mix of programmes will allow the creation of spaces to foster the learning and entrepreneurship of the city’s cultural traditions, such as the textile industry, to support the productive sector, to promote the stay of young talents and in turn to link, in a coherent and complementary manner, the constructions recycled to the current equipment network, taking into account the deficiencies and needs of each sector. In order to intertwine these places and move from a purely virtual connection to a physical one, the project presents the design of a main street, consolidated on an important axis of the city, which serves as a communication route for the intervening spaces, and that is born from the transformation that they generate on their environment and the adjacent public space, with this in turn comes the greening of the roads, the development of parks between the different points, the generation of public space in the required areas and the integration of the infrastructure necessary for cycling on the track. In short the project is developed with the revitalization of dots, the endowment of them and the interlinking of these that allow the final objective of knitting the city.
