A statement of program intent
The program intends to charge the street by becoming a neighborhood hub as well as become a public show for the people sitting in the park. It will add a new level of excitement for both the players and the spectators. The people that sit to watch a game can liven the space just as much as the players running after the ball. The small piazzas will become publicly and spontaneously filled by soccer players looking for an empty spot to play. The idea is not to design these spaces, but to leave them unplanned and flexible enough so that people can become the focal point of its activity. The sense of neighborhood will come together with the program of studio housing for the working people of Vicenza.
