Azzaip!

Azzaip!

“Azzaip!”, square in reverse

A collaborative agreement with an evocative sound: the sound of Arabic words, to draw attention to the multicultural richness of the neighborhood. Different cultures animate and compose the same collaboration pact proposed by Giacomo Sarasso, manager of the kiosk located on Piazzale Corvetto. This small place hosts free and shared poetry reading performances, as well as a bookcrossing corner, attracting great participation in the various events.

The proposal to the Municipality of Milan for a collaboration pact is the result of the path that Giacomo and Luoghicomuni, the action promoted by Labsus and Italia Nostra Nord Milano within the Lacittàintorno urban regeneration program of Fondazione Cariplo, have carried out together to transform a space of passage and without identity in a pleasant place in which to meet, mingle, create culture, supporting it on different fronts.

Labsus accompanied Giacomo in the engagement of stakeholders, in the drafting and presentation of the proposal, in the communication of the initiative, while Italia Nostra made resources and skills available for the feasibility analysis and planting of a tree, Liriodendron tulipifera.

The Municipality of Milan provided the necessary material for the collective painting of the flooring and for planting the tree.
