Peugeot ion and garden furniture for Milan

Milan sowing for the future with the help of Peugeot ion which, together with the City and Foundation AEM, reinterprets the urban areas of the city in eco-sustainable perspective. Here comes the Garden of Ion Milan, the first garden furniture and tools and the city, which will allow the public to follow the growth of vegetables, herbs and fruits during the season.

This will be followed a few days before the first of a series of green walls of Ion Milan, which increase the energy efficiency of buildings on which will be installed. The Garden of Ion Milan is for the public and wants to become a place for information exchange and green eco-mobility.

A large part of programming is devoted to children in schools and summer camps that will follow the first animated tours and workshops to gather the fruits of their labor ... to take home and enjoy family. With support for Peugeot ion, the garden recapture the center of Milan becoming an educational project and stimulator of emulation.

Designed by Silvio De Ponte, the Garden of Ion Milan is a green box in which they live and develop vertically typical planting season vegetables such as lettuce, chicory, celery, basil, tomatoes, summer cabbage, beets , and strawberries in coastal variety. The objective is to promote the idea that a feeling "eco" can easily live with an urban environment.

In each of green vertical rib is inserted a steel frame, easily attached and removed to ground through bolts, with a series of pegs on which they are attached to a vessel containing vegetables. During the summer, the garden of ion will be transferred to the Park Indro Montanelli Via Palestro to be more frequent during the warm months.

The city has no more space for the fields but has so many buildings? No problem: the green area can be developed vertically, as happens in Ticinese and Via San Marco from June 5 is designated by the General Assembly of the United Nations to celebrate the World Environment Day. In this way very well known, the design of green walls of Ion Milan fits naturally within districts, with a new type of art that joins and intersects with the street furniture.

The project consists of two main elements: the hedge anti-fouling, which runs along the whole front at the bottom and installing "advertising" at the top. The objective of the green walls of Ion Milan is not only an ornament to represent beauty, but also to become a new technical element carried a series of advantages both for the microenvironment of the building on which you install, both for ' surrounding urban environment.

The green walls of Ion Milan are a complementary and innovative way of thinking about the green space in the city. Transform the idea of a city that is no longer just a mineral area, but plant. They are a skilful blend of form and use of living and enjoyment of the richness of the green.

She left the North Park, finally, the 2011 edition of Pinch (in City Park), an initiative of re-landscaping of Milan, which includes four months of events in seven urban parks (Park North, Park Trenno, Parco Sempione Park Alessandrini, Park Indro Montanelli, Parco delle Cave, Parco Lambro) for over two hundred and seven hundred hours of fun events.
