The studio is born in Rome, then driven by an impulse, of a possible goal, to the “new frontier of the manner” in China, on Shanghai, fixed his second reference coordination. The choice is guided by the research of an occasion, he confirms that “. In fact I arrived in China, almost exclusively because being in love with architecture I look for an opportunity to practice it traveling around the globe. I am not a fast or competitive guy, and not appreciating the Chinese contemporary culture,, i believe that there will be a shorter age of job opportunities, I will return immediately to the relax Rome.

the influence of natural elements such as weather and sounds. This is the case with Kic Park where Francesco Gatti has imagined a pleated wooden floor destined to be suitable for all the functions that are indispensible in a public area (seats, green spaces, pathways, publicity panels). The image used by the architect to illustrate his idea – that of a sheet of paper cut and folded like a fan – brings to mind the epigenetic description that Deleuze gives of spaces characterized by the use of a fold: Development and evolution are concepts that have changed their significance, because today they designate epigenesist or the apparition of organisms or organs that are neither pre-formed nor built-in but formed from different objects that do not resemble them.

在本案建筑师的所有设计中,互动性一直是他考虑的一个重要元素:本案的互动性体现在人(人 的行动与活动)和自然元素(天气、声音)间的相互影响。 KIC 公园的设计便属于这种情况,建筑师弗朗切斯科 • 加蒂打算在公共区域(座椅、绿地、小路、

The architect in this way has predisposed specific spaces where people can chat together, have a rest, or even go skateboarding.

建筑师用木材,一种理想的原料,将整个表面覆盖。树木既便于利用,又能营造舒适的环境。 哪里有高耸的树林,哪里就可以看到从地下生出的草木。 建筑师通过这种方式为人们预设了一个可以一起聊天、休息、甚至是玩滑板的特定空间。
