Milano Arch Week 2023
June 2 – 11, 2023
What can we learn from the marginal areas? What do we expect from the home? What are the boundaries of the center? Are neighborhoods islands or are they rather thematic layers?
Milano Arch Week is a week of lectures, talks, working tables, workshops, and itineraries that explore the future of architecture and cities through the voices of architects, landscape designers, researchers and curators from all over the world. Now in its fifth edition, Milano Arch Week, titled Around Peripheries, is a moment of confrontation on the social and cultural energies of the city, aimed at initiating a collective reflection on the peripheries.
