Metamorphosis

In the Corvetto neighborhood, the revitalization of Corso Lodi, focuses on nature-themed events. Residents are encouraged to place or take flower and herb pots to beautify the street. Permanent fences have been installed to support ivy plants, creating a green wall that separates the bike path from the busy road. Modular, easy-to-assemble pavilions, inspired by the pupa stage of a butterfly’s metamorphosis, are set up to attract insects and people, inviting the community to engage with these shared spaces while symbolizing the area’s transformation.

Pupa - pavillion area

Butterfly - wings area

Caterpillar - gathering area
