The architect Stefano Boeri, five proposals to rethink the future - Lifestyle

"Five clear, feasible proposals to capitalize on this crisis by making it an opportunity and to transform post-Covid investments into quality and wealth for all": the architect and urban planner Stefano Boeri brought them to the table of the General States of the economy, in a panel - which was also attended by representatives of the world of culture and entertainment - which took place "in a very serious and attentive climate, of great intensity".
    The first proposal, the architect of the 'Vertical Forest' explains to ANSA, " is forestation: the commitment to multiply the number of trees in our cities, a point on which Prime Minister Conte has committed himself and that it is important that leave immediately. " And then "the role of schools in a changing city: they must be community hubscentral places - he underlines - that attract crowds and bodies: it is essential that they are open, to rediscover the neighborhood community that will have to be the base of the new cities, with all the services reachable in fifteen minutes ".
    Third point, insists Boeri, " the revival of historic villages : with ministers Gualtieri and Provenzano, in particular, we talked about reciprocity contracts, the French model that allows dialogue between cities and networks of historic villages that cannot be alternative, but must collaborate, otherwise there will be no restocking of the villages. And in Italy there are over five thousand seeds abandoned ".
    Fourth proposal illustrated by the architect," building replacement . There are at least four million energy-consuming buildings that should be demolished and rebuilt: the theme is the revitalization of the construction sector, but in the name of sustainability and environmental qualities. Today, if you build buildings that consume less and occupy less space, the urbanization charges must be paid off, which should be removed. "
    Last point," which I care a lot about ", underlines Boeri, regards the live show:" I proposed to be inspired by the English model of the Live Music Act which allows by 11pm to make music, but also theater and dance, anywhere, with a maximum of 200 people, without certifications or bureaucracy. In a year, 25 thousand new cultural enterprises were born in Great Britain. In Italy there is already a rule of a 2014 decree that would allow it, but the implementing decrees are lacking: it would be a nice sign of oxygen for the sector ".
