Wrapped Around Pavilion
Morbegno, Italia
2021

Progetto: Carlo Ezechieli


Assistants: Andrei Vassallo

This project doesn’t want to solve the problem of global warming, nor to declare itself "sustainable", nor to save the planet. The goal is simply to celebrate the joy of children, making them feel an integral part of the environment around them.
While a pavilion is usually identified as a space with trees around it, in this case are trees with a pavilion around them. In the shape of this small space, where the design of the greenery and that of the pavilion are one, concavity prevails over convexity, literally enveloping those who frequent it.
Entering through narrow corridors, instead of a flat floor, you find yourself immersed in a topography that allows children to play and use the space freely according to their desires.
The pavilion is high enough to be hidden in the vegetation. Only the roof is slightly visible, creating an environment inside that appears like an enchanted world.

Bicycle station

Architectural design: Carlo Ezechieli

The project for a bicycle “smart mobility” station is a relatively unprecedented design task. The design path therefore went through a deep space planning process that led to a “system” - easily manageable by one person only - made of a central enclosed storage space, directly connected with a tune-up/shop area, beverages and food vending machines room, and various secondary facilities (storage, lockers, toilet etc.). The building is a mirror box that actually disappears during the day, reflecting the bikes parked around it, and at night it becomes a transparent “lantern” revealing  its content.
