The temporary installation “United for Progress” designed by Mario Cucinella Architects, hosted the world launch of Audi Q4 e-tron, during the Interni Designer’s Week in Milan.

The identity of the project is symbolically represented by the infinity that can be seen proceeding around the structure. The infinity represents the idea of a way of being, where places, people and skills are at the centre of a path that aims to meet challenges and overcome limits.

Consisting of a modular metal sub-structure entirely clad with wooden panels, a material symbolising the sustainable paradigms of the city of the future, the central arena, made up of 12 steps (6 on each side), offers visitors an informal gathering space (in compliance with SARSCoV-2 prevention and control measures), as well as new perspectives of the park, both during the day and at night, thanks to an integrated full-LED lighting system.

The project has been realised following the principles of Design for Disassembly: it will be possible to separate and recover all the materials once the exhibition is over.The installation was conceived as an extension of the public space of the park, a place for exchange and knowledge, like an urban laboratory where exploring a new-found relationship between man and nature, to connect through common values and imagine a sustainable future together.

L’installazione temporanea “United for Progress” progettata da Mario Cucinella Architects, ha ospitato il debutto mondiale di Audi Q4 e-tron, svelata agli occhi del pubblico in occasione della Interni Designer’s Week milanese.

L’identità del progetto è simbolicamente rappresentata dal segno dell’infinito che si evince seguendo l’andamento della struttura e che ben rappresenta l’idea di un modo di essere dove luoghi, persone e competenze sono al centro di un percorso volto a raccogliere sfide e a oltrepassare limiti.

Costituita da una sotto struttura metallica modulare e rivestita interamente da pannelli di legno, materiale simbolo dei paradigmi sostenibili della città del futuro, l’arena centrale, formata da 12 gradoni (6 per parte), offre ai visitatori uno spazio di aggregazione informale (nel rispetto delle misure di prevenzione e controllo della SARSCoV-2), oltre che nuove prospettive del parco, sia durante il giorno che durante la notte, grazie ad un sistema di illuminazione full-LED integrato. Il progetto è stato realizzato seguendo i principi del Design for Disassembly ed è stato possibile separare e recuperare tutti i materiali utilizzati, una volta terminata la Interni Designer’s Week e il periodo di esposizione. L’installazione è stata pensata come una estensione dello spazio pubblico del parco, un luogo di scambio e conoscenza pensato come un laboratorio urbano in cui esplorare un ritrovato rapporto tra uomo e natura, per connetterci a valori e progetti comuni e immaginare insieme un futuro sostenibile.
