aedes

Az Aedas nemzetközi építészstúdió legújabb 28 emeletes irodatornya Hong Kongban készült el a közelmúltban, ami a megrendelő kérésének megfelelően az ipari negyedben megszokottól eltérő módon energiahatékony, zöld szerkezet lett.

Since the 1990s, the Italian city of Milan has undergone a process of rapid transformation. The decommissioning of a number of older industrial facilities having central, inner-city locations has catalyzed a series of urbanistic developments. Playing a significant role has been a targeted treatment of green and open spaces and landscape areas in a constructive dialogue with urban planning and architecture. This exhibition, organized by AedesLand, features six exemplary projects related to this plan, all developed under the landscape planning management of Andreas Kipar and Giovanni Sala together with their international team LAND ("Landscape Architecture Nature Development").

Established for Milan in 2005 in conjunction with the "Associazione Interessi Metropolitani" (Society for Metropolitan Interests) was the strategic masterplan RAGGI VERDI (Green Rays). This conceptualization has become the basic structure for the open area design of the city's newly developed general land use plan.
