CAROSELLO

The project enhances the architectural concept through event programming, seasonal markets, greenery and leisure areas, with the aim of combining retail, landscape, social life and entertainment.

The extension introduces a gradual spatial sequence. At the entrance, retail areas and the hypermarket progressively give way to routes for specialty shopping, lounge zones, services and outdoor activities.
The panoramic food court overlooking the lake is the hub of entertainment and the new open-air services: temporary events, outdoor dining, seasonal markets, a cinema, play areas, urban gardens and botanical paths enrich the user experience. Architecture becomes a link between the city and the landscape, thanks to the integration of open spaces, permeable green areas and a social zone—an gathering destination within the shopping center.
The key idea is a gradient of naturalness. Starting from an urban language, nature gradually takes over with organic forms, suggesting a landscape-mimicking approach that reshapes Carosello as a place for connection and interaction.
