An installation for the future of our city
We care about our territory and we support our city. The Lugano municipal master plan intends to unite in a common long-term vision the development of a territory that is currently heterogeneous in terms of landscape, economic activities and building structure.
The role of communication is accompanying the process of creating the municipal master plan. The development of “a vision for Lugano” is the task that the groups of the parallel study mandate have received for implementing the municipal master plan, and has also become the slogan of the communication campaign. Veragouth and Xilema contributed by creating the exhibition structure for the three finalist projects on display at the Convention Centre on January 24, 2022. The set-up in round beech bars with metal joints, designed by Sabrina Cerea and Leonardo Angelucci, recalls the main elements of the project: the division of space into modules and the recomposition according to ever-changing combinations.
And what better than scaffolding is able to communicate "work in progress"?
Over the last 50 years Lugano has undergone a great transformation, from town to extended city, becoming the home of 146,000 inhabitants and creating more than 100,000 jobs. The challenge today is to reconcile Ticino’s role as an economic center while maintaining the quality of life, so that it remains a city of choice for those who live there, and not just of necessity.
