Parco Industria Alfa Romeo - Portello — Attraction in Milan

By design, the park wants to establish a continuity, even historical, with that of the Montagnetta di San Siro : like that, the two hills, much smaller, were built with rubble and excavated earth and are connected to it by a walkway. It is divided into several areas, the first of which is the hill of "prehistory", with its S-shape that shelters from the noise of the road and envelops a large body of water. Its shape takes up the first great structure of the universe, the spirals of the galaxies and, finally, the theme of speed in memory of past activities. Going down from this hill you come to that of "history", a crescent, which separates the "Time Garden" from the rest of the park. The most imposing hill, which looks towards the city center, is dedicated to the "present", with a path that unravels on a double helix culminating in its highest point (22 meters). At the top is a fountain and a metal DNA sculpture, in homage to the theme of life. The "Time Garden", on the other hand, is the most intimate and protected space in the park, with black and white plates marking the rotation of the Earth, the four seasons with metal septa, the 28 days of the lunar cycle in circles, 12 months of the year like words cut out of metal, the 365 days of the year and the waves of the heartbeat, marked on the floor between black and white plates.  The entire park stands on an embankment ten meters high obtained with the construction of special...
