The international workshop between Politecnico di Milano and Tokyo University (Kengo Kuma Lab) held in 2015 at the Farm Cultural Park in Favara and the Valle dei Templi in Agrigento has shown the architectural and evocative potential of poor and recycled materials.
After cleaning, from rotting reeds, a hut structure in tubular steel at the Parco Valle dei Templi in Agrigento, the structure was transported in Favara at the Farm Cultural Park and a project of wrapping was developped using plastic packages for cottage cheese (“fiscelle”).
The surprising outcome culminated with a concert and the project called “La Scala dei Milanesi ” is a tribute to both music and the famous Scala dei Turchi.
