A Public Park in Kriens, “Grabenhofpark” The Grabenhof area is located within a rapidly transforming context, at the boundary between the municipalities of Kriens and Horw, within the sphere of influence of the city of Lucerne.

Today, this ongoing evolution opens the way for a new identity for the site. Situated between major urban...

Park for new hospital of Cremona The landscape design for the New Hospital of Cremona aims at mending the existing fracture in the urban/peri-urban context in which the intervention area is located. The basic idea is to create a courtyard system that foresees different spaces opening up within a new urban park, where the hospital function is more harmoniously integrated with the urban context. Thanks to the inclusion of various activities, such as skatepark, fitness area, children playground, open-air market etc., people will stay in the park throughout the day. New buildings with tertiary functions also find their place: parking, kindergarten, spaces dedicated to the university,...
