La Mandria is a natural heritage park located in the north of Torino, Italy. Its vast dimensions and poor connections with the city have produced abandonment over its various heritage buildings. During this project, we explored the possibility of activating the park, creating a series of small interventions with specific functions that enhance and explode the landscape in different manners. In this way, we developed a strategy of Acupuncture that allowed us to connect all the parks with the city with a minimum budget and low impact on the nature and heritage sites.
Through the exploration and further design done on some specific cites, we materialize the strategies into architecture. These designed typologies repeated threw out the park (on strategic points) create our web of acupuncture.
