At the foot of the Alps nearby Turin, in one of the most significant districts in the history of European sport, a vast area capable of hosting an ambitious dream: the creation of an arena and its sport citadel. Designing an area [for sport] means creating a sanctuary for the display of the sporting spectacle. Moreover, it means giving a reference to the community. It means creating a place where to hope and rejoice, be moved and touched.
Our main concern was to allow different experiences to diverse groups and ages. Accordingly, the classrooms are situated near the stadium so there is a visual connection, helping students visualize what they are working for. The citizens of Mappano, and especially those who live inside the Citadel, will have the opportunity to see inside the arena when they use the lateral galleries. By being near successful competitors people will be inspired, will unit to cheer for them, or will strive to be like them.
