Landscape Festival 2020 and the new edition of Green Square, with the extraordinary participation of Michele de Lucchi
Landscape Festival 2020 presents a new edition of Green Square. This year Michele De Lucchi has reinterpreted the charming Piazza Vecchia in Bergamo from a green point of view. For this occasion, the Milanese architect has designed an installation of solid wood tables of various sizes, enriched with native and forest plants. Moreover, the group of Il Legno dalla Natura alle Cose built the tables designed by Michele De Lucchi.

Visitors will be able to purchase the plants and Michele de Lucchi’s tables with free donations. The proceeds will be used to support the first project of Green to the People, the new format created by Arketipos. Green to the People #01 entails the creation of a garden in the outdoor spaces of the Papa Giovanni XXIII hospital in Bergamo. An area with a strong symbolic value for the citizens of Bergamo, particularly in the year of the Covid-19 health emergency.
