Aprile Maggio - Gruppo Torsanlorenzo

La cultura
del verde urbano
43
The organic, the basic structure of every form of plant life, becomes the form-giving theme of the central
exhibition areas. The staging of the change of perspective, the micro and the macro, is the connecting
thread for the entire area of the garden show. This is articulated differently depending on the
location. The material in the existing interim areas in Riem becomes a design aid: gravel areas form
the cell garden and frame the leaf garden. The theme gardens of the cells stand under the motto,
“Cell Worlds in Changing Perspectives.” In the garden of powers the similarity of microscopic plant
structures serves as an inspiration for new garden views. The parallel gardens are determined by a
minimum of elements: cut hedges, woody plantings and east-west pathways form extended parallel
spaces. In the leaf garden, a projection serves as the model for the division of the exhibition space.
An expanded leaf structure is depicted in the hierarchy of paths, with plant surfaces like leaf cells
between them. The National Garden Show park will become a central element of the garden show in
a subtle way; mobile cameras will transmit pictures to red boxes in the exhibition space, opening new
perspectives for the visitors.
