A 'healing' Nature that weaves through the pathways between hospital buildings, offering well-being and environmental comfort to patients, staff, and visitors in a place historically dedicated to health. This is the vision of LAND for the regeneration of the open spaces at the Policlinico di Milano, led through permeability and ecological continuity.

At Fuorisalone 2025 LAND brings together voices from Milan and Riyadh to explore how nature, technology, innovation, and human-centered design can collaboratively shape inclusive, adaptive, and future-oriented urban landscapes.

The new "megatrend" of environmentally conscious urban development and sustainability through landscape architecture is rapidly becoming more prominent in major global events like World Expos.

In line with the theme of Milano Design Week 2025, "Connected Worlds", LAND and Porsche Consulting joined forces to highlight the transversal and multisectoral impact of the "Nature-Factory Manifesto", unveiled last January in Davos during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting. The event conveyed at our LAND Terrace key representatives from both the public and private sectors.

We are glad to announce that Antonello Naseddu starts his new role as Project Director at LAND Italia.

As part of our internal development program, our team members visited the Parco del Valentino construction site in Turin to see firsthand the transformation of this historic green space into a sustainable urban landmark.

As part of Fuorisalone 2025 and its theme “Mondi Connessi” (Connected Worlds), Design4Future will present a multivocal dialogue taking place next April 11 at 17:00 at the LAND Wunderkammer, via Varese 12, Milan.

On the occasion of the 2025 "Festa del Perdono", the Policlinico of Milan has unveiled our project that will transform the hospital complex in the coming months. The project focuses on redefining pedestrian and vehicular pathways, enhancing permeability, and replacing asphalt with a network of green spaces interwoven among the hospital buildings. This initiative is designed to integrate seamlessly with the "Giardino Terapeutico", which will soon be built above the Sforza Pavilion.

ColtivaTo, the international Festival of Agriculture, took place in Turin over the weekend coinciding with World Water Day (March 22). From climate change and drought to innovative water resource management, from conflicts over water access to food security—inseparably linked to it—the second edition of the event was dedicated to the planet’s most precious resource.

Since 2016, we have been building a network of European research and cooperation partners that combines multidisciplinary expertise, diverse cultures and innovative approaches to develop sustainable and impactful solutions.

At this year’s German Congress on Pedestrian Traffic in Mainz, Andreas Kipar took the stage as a keynote speaker to discuss how landscape design and placemaking can support slow mobility.

Learning from… Looking Beyond the Horizon

As we face escalating climate challenges across Europe, it is time to expand our perspective and look beyond our own borders. The Middle East, with its centuries-old expertise in surviving and thriving in harsh climates, provides valuable lessons for the future of our cities and landscapes.

How to move humanity from planet reserves absorber to resource producer?

In line with the theme of Milano Design Week 2025 "Connected Worlds", LAND and Porsche Consulting will come together to highlight the multisectoral impact of the "Nature-Factory Manifesto", unveiled last January in Davos during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting. This bold initiative envisions private companies transforming into “Factories of Nature,” embracing the role of resource producers rather than resource consumers. The event will take place at the LAND Terrace on April 9th, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM - in cooperation with Green City Italia.

The event organized by Green City Italia on the opening day of the most important gardening fair in Milan brought together global experts, institutions, and professionals for an engaging discussion on nature-based solutions for more sustainable and resilient cities. The conversations explored how learning from international experiences and applying tailored strategies can help cities thrive in different climates, landscapes, and scales.

A capillary Nature offering the community recreational and cultural areas immersed in greenery, while respecting the agricultural and productive vocation of the surrounding territory. These are the key elements of the winning project for the open spaces of the new Cantonal School Campus in Biasca.

Mobility and landscape are intrinsically linked, shaping how people navigate spaces. Mobility serves as the backbone of a functional system, while landscape provides the framework that sustains it. Our collective efforts emphasize the need to integrate both to create sustainable, meaningful environments.

At LAND, we believe schools should be dynamic ecosystems where learning, nature, and community converge. Our projects in the educational sector vividly illustrate how thoughtful landscape design can transform a school environment into a space that nurtures creativity, well-being, and sustainable growth.
