SPAMLAB.02 is a workshop arised by the partnership between Eur SpA and Spam from the opportunity to create an open and operational planning laboratory, a “think tank” on an apparently autonomous part of the city, the Eur pentagon.
EUR is the first major tertiary and residential decentralization of the capital as well as one of the most iconic and futuristic neighborhoods of the 20th century. The pandemic and Covid-19 have forcibly changed our habits of life, relationships and work, significantly favoring smart working at work on site. This major transformation, which is consolidating, together with the climatic crisis and the nodal role of public spaces, makes it necessary to rethink a new model of city and neighborhood increasingly aimed at people, more liveable and in balance with nature and the ‘environment.
Planning on the Eur pentagon still aims at transforming it into a new flexible city model, which can serve as an urban model for our present and our future.
