Full Description

City Life is the redevelopment project of the Milan Trade Fair, an urban area of ??225,000 square meters entirely redeveloped and with a new urban layout of great visual impact. Characterized by three original "presences, three buildings that bear the name of their creators. DETAILS The Isozaki tower is nicknamed the "Dritto" and with its fifty floors offers panoramic views, it is the second tallest skyscraper in Italy on whose top stands a copy of the Madonnina, according to the Milanese tradition. The Libeskind tower is called the "Curved", in the project its shape recalls a half Renaissance dome as if to be an element that surrounds and protects the square below. Finally the third building called Zaha-Hadid (in honor of its Anglo-Iraqi creator) as nickname brings the "Storto", for the innovative peculiarity in the vertical trend that reveals a bold torsion movement to underline how much space has been considered as dynamism. Great records, famous archistars, trees, cycle and pedestrian paths and new modern residences equipped with home automation systems, the guided tour of City Life allows you to understand one of the new aspects of the city of Milan, in its constant updating on urban planning and architecture modern, outlining itself as one of the most avant-garde cities in Europe with a green soul of about 4000 square meters of surface, called, Orti Fioriti di City Life. The project proposes the discovery of themed spaces: the Garden of the Infinite-Minds, the Pergola of the Gourds, the Herb Garden, the raised Garden, the Avenue of dwarf fruit trees, the Garden of Perfumes. CityLife testifies to the great care and attention given to issues related to sustainability and renewal, to offer not only its residents but all citizens the opportunity to immerse themselves in nature.
