There are two initiatives born from the collaboration between the Design System of the Politecnico di Milano and BASE Milano, scheduled for the Design Week 2021. During the week of the Fuorisalone, as part of ‘We Will Design’, the spaces of the former Ansaldo will present the exhibition ‘Designing the proximity’<\/strong>, with 30 projects by the students of the School of Design and POLI.design that offer different interpretations of the term “proximity”. A constellation of ideas from which a clear scenario for the city of the future emerges, a theme investigated also through the Public Program<\/strong> that, inspired by the book “Abitare la prossimit\u00e0” written by the Honorary Professor of the Politecnico di Milano Ezio Manzini, will propose to the public a series of daily appointments in the shadow of GAIA, the installation dedicated to the planet Earth by the artist Luke Jerram. Two debates per day, at 6 pm and 7.15 pm: experts in the field, accompanied by lecturers from the Department and the School of Design of the Politecnico di Milano, will investigate different points of view on as many issues related to the city of proximity<\/strong>, from services for the neighborhood<\/strong> to public space in transformation<\/strong>, to platforms and economies of proximity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These initiatives are part of the Politecnico di Milano program in support of the New European Bauhaus project.<\/p>\n

The exhibition ‘Designing the proximity’ | Politecnico di Milano<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opening hours BASE: September 5-11, 10 am \u2013 8 pm | September 12, 10 am \u2013 6 pm
\nFree entrance, in possession of Green Pass<\/p>\n

The exhibition ‘Designing the proximity’ brings together 30 projects by students of the Design System of the Politecnico di Milano that offer different interpretations of the term “proximity”. Those who design health services at a short distance from home, those who recover abandoned urban spaces and transform them into inclusive places, dedicated to children and the elderly, those who design new scooters to enhance slow mobility, those who strengthen and give space to the different identities of a neighborhood or a specific place in the city and those who build new communities around common interests, those who enhance the communication of services around the corner, those who design new pedestrian areas, those who transform streets into places of aggregation, those who collaborate with neighborhood stores and those who design local production of food and consumer goods. From this constellation of ideas, we read a clear scenario for the city of the future, based on a strong network of services spread in the neighborhoods and “around the corner” for the different urban populations.<\/p>\n

Monday, 6 September<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Generative city and Citizen generations<\/strong><\/p>\n

What does an inclusive city look like? Are there any cities that are family-friendly, child-friendly, parent-friendly, elderly-friendly, and generally capable of welcoming the most fragile inhabitants? Can the pandemic lead us to rethink public spaces in a more inclusive and welcoming way for all?<\/p>\n

6 pm – 7 pm > First table moderated by Beatrice Villari<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
