la pedagogia

The word “piazza” (town square) is used to designate the typical Italian place that symbolically

represents encounters and being part of and creating a community. The piazza is a place of

meetings, exchanges, pauses, and discoveries, a place where there may be many people

or just a few, where you can spend time in groups or separate yourself from them.

It’s an inviting space, a space of daily transits and pauses, and lends itself to assemblies

of adults and children, becoming the setting and stage for parties, theatrical productions,

and cultural initiatives.

The piazza is therefore characterized by a sort of pulsing rhythm, alternately full and

empty, quiet and noisy, where children can encounter many opportunities for meeting,

playing, creating stories, making discoveries, dressing up in fabrics, colors and lights,

creating a theater, playing with shadows, reflecting, multiplying and modifying their own

image. It’s a multipurpose space even though it is highly characterized in its cultural and

educational aspects.

descrizione

Like the mirror triangle, the infinito structure is one of the elements

in the environment that lend themselves to making reality strongly

and unpredictably transformable.

An enclosed space, a box that conceals a place made of myriad

places that go on to infinity.

Science? Magic? Keeping the two together, children know how

to explore and intensely experience the possibilities of such an

object.
