Improving the existential conditions of elderly people means involving the population as a whole, considering the complexity of its surrounding. The territory of the small village of Monte, therefore, becomes an experimental laboratory to look for innovative solutions to achieve a positive relationship between the well-being of the person in age and the environment surrounding it.
The project intends to achieve this goal through a set of small-scale architectural interventions in the public space scattered throughout the village. Thirteen interconnected points of interest form an intergenerational path, that combines the needs of the elderly with urban, landscape, economic, and social aspects of the public space.
