Regenerating urban space. Architecture, materials and new ways of living in the city
Contemporary cities require spaces capable of evolving along with the needs of the people who live in them. Through a selection of projects by Park, Michele Rossi, Founding Partner of the studio, will explore, during the I Caffè della Stampa event hosted by the magazine Door, the role of architecture as a tool capable of redefining the relationships between people, space and environment, generating new models of livability founded on inclusion, sustainability and quality. The talk will also offer a look at the value of matter, and of ceramics in particular, as an essential component of the project, capable of combining innovation, durability and continuity between building and public space.

Research, Innovation, Sustainability
Gloria Caiti, Project Leader of Park, will speak at Decortech 2026 about the studio’s design approach, with a focus on the Park Materials department, dedicated to the research, analysis, and selection of innovative and sustainable materials for architecture and interior design. Through continuous experimentation, the department develops solutions that address aesthetic, functional, and environmental requirements, supporting project teams in creating more conscious architectures oriented toward both the present and the future. At the heart of this work is the studio’s materials library, an evolving physical and digital space that collects, updates, and provides access to materials and innovations, supporting more informed and sustainable design choices.

Reinventing Heritage: Torre della Permanente and Palazzo Galbani
The book Reinventing Heritage explores 25 years of work by the Milan-based architecture firm Park, founded and led by Filippo Pagliani and Michele Rossi. Its approach starts from what already exists, transforming buildings and spaces through a careful dialogue with their history, identity, and surrounding context. It is a method that brings together design, memory, and innovation to rethink what we already have rather than replace it. As part of the conference “Architecture That Lived Twice: Understanding Contemporary Heritage in Order to Intervene”, Andrea Manfredini, Project Leader at Park, will present two projects involving the enhancement of two Milanese buildings from the 1950s, each characterized by a different approach to intervention. The first, Torre della Permanente, designed by Achille and Piergiacomo Castiglioni, represents a thoughtful restoration and reuse of the existing building. At the same time, the project is distinguished by the addition of a new upper level, designed to give the entire building a new lease of life. The second, Palazzo Galbani, designed by Eugenio and Ermenegildo Soncini, with structural engineering by Pier Luigi Nervi, takes a more delicate approach, focusing on restoring and bringing back the building’s original identity.

Through a selection of case studies completed by the firm, Caterina Steiner will delve into the design process, illustrating how functional, operational, and spatial planning requirements can be integrated with architectural considerations.
