aMAZElab / GREEN ISLAND 2014. LANDSCAPING: Dutch Design for a new city Garden

The cultural studio aMAZElab, working for over ten years with projects concerning public art, sustainability and urban garden, presents the project GREEN ISLAND. LANDSCAPING: Dutch Design for a new city Garden. The project, inspired by Dutch practices, is dedicated to urban green area and city gardens. The program consists of a series of innovative and sustainable urban actions made by young Dutch designers and artists and it will be introduced by the first photographic exhibition dedicated to the well known landscape designer Piet Oudolf (creator of the High Line in NYC). Landscaping suggests new urban lifestyles: the aim is to propose a new concept of social life, through a contemporary design of parks, gardens and public spaces. With the improvement of exhibitions, installations and biketours, the project offers an incentive to redesign the urban landscape on a better human scale. Green Island is staged in collaboration with the Dutch Embassy and Consulate General of the Netherlands in Milan. You can find the complete daily program on www.amaze.it
