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.

The Prim’Alpe project is addressed to a site formerly used as a parking lot. It emulates the design principles of the “teatri di verzura” of the seventeenth centuries villas, using as backstage curtains high Chamecyparis, planted by the forest authority more than 40 years ago. The materials that make the space are stone and wood almost totally coming directly from the construction site, the wood pathways lead going through the lawn to thematic pathways in the woods. Wooden steps include the space to be used for concerts and events, as well as make sits for the spectators, and at the same time, stretch out towards important landscape presences such as the Corno di Canzo and SassoMalascarpa.
