Curator of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/en\/design\/milan-the-return-of-the-worlds-largest-design-fair\/\">the Salone del Mobile<\/a> from 5 to 10 September 2021, Stefano Boeri is teeming with solutions. The Italian architect became famous with his \u201cvertical forest\u201d architectural complex in the centre of Milan. Inventive and sustainable, his ideas and achievements are eye-catching. Today, he is preparing to build the greenest residential building in Belgium in collaboration with property developer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.triple-living.be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Triple Living<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_ethics_of_an_unparalleled_designer\"><\/span>The ethics of an unparalleled designer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Designing_high_quality_architecture_for_all\"><\/span>Designing high quality architecture for all<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Stefano Boeri is one of the worthy heirs of the utopian movement that has been driving the design industry and its publishers, such as Zanotta, for more than 40 years and whose success is still ongoing. This man, the source of the most incredible pieces of contemporary architecture created in Belgium, practises his profession with reflection, audacity and the desire to revolutionise housing standards.<\/p>\n<p>A child of the sixties, Stefano Boeri had a creative streak from an early age. He is the son of the designer and architect Cini Boeri, a contemporary of the designer Marco Zanuso, with whom she started out. She is famous for being the creator of the Ghost chair (1987). A piece made entirely of tempered, totally transparent glass. An icon of its kind that remains in the collection of MoMA in New York and is handcrafted by the brand FIAM (Fiam Italia).<\/p>\n<p>In 1980, Cini Boeri stated in her own <a href=\"https:\/\/pinupmagazine.org\/articles\/book-excerpt-cini-boeri-human-dimensions-of-the-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">design manifesto<\/a>: \u201cIn order to avoid people being <i>boxed<\/i> in rooms that are not suitable for them, we need to start designing from scratch based on an analysis of their current needs.\u201d Now, Stefano Boeri&#8217;s work meets this requirement. It takes the world of architecture out of the traditional framework and gives it a whole new dimension, in line with the public&#8217;s expectations in terms of performance and sustainability. His buildings thus have a high architectural and environmental value and universal scope.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_246\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-246\" class=\"center wp-image-246 size-full\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/villas-decoration-stefano-boeri-04.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" width=\"950\" height=\"600\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-246\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DR<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Engaged_thinking_and_building\"><\/span>Engaged thinking and building<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Stefano Boeri is a graduate of the Politecnico di Milano, where he began his career as a teacher of urban planning projects. Since 1993 and the founding of his cultural events agency Multiplicity, he has collaborated with major events such as the Venice Architecture Biennale and the Documenta in Kassel, Germany, dedicated to art, as a curator. In 2002, he presented a striking programme on the subject of illegal migratory flows in the Mediterranean, aptly entitled \u201cMutiplicit\u00e9\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Whether he is chairing the Milan Triennale, one of the most famous <i>design museums <\/i>in the world, or directing the eminent design magazine Domus, Stefano Boeri questions our way of life with curiosity. The answers he provides as a curator or architect make him one of the major spokespersons for environmental and societal developments and issues.<\/p>\n<p>Social justice and creativity go hand in hand for Stefano Boeri. His sources of inspiration, which he willingly shares with the public, reveal how he thinks. The famous Patrone chair (published by Gufram) is one of them. On this oversized reproduction of a patch of green grass, created by architects Giorgio Ceretti and Riccardo Rosso in 1971, he wrote: \u201cI believe that the great success of this object stems from a certain perplexity in observing the destruction of nature.\u201d On the art of the French artist Christian Boltanski, he recalled this quote:\u201cAn artist is someone who has complete knowledge of the rules of his time and, at the same time, manages to circumvent or modify them.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Imagining_the_building_of_tomorrow_differently\"><\/span>Imagining the building of tomorrow differently<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The internationally renowned work of Stefano Boeri Architetti is the result of the thinking of its founder and director Stefano Boeri. It is defining new rules with an environmental responsibility: rehabilitate and renovate existing structures or build new constructions when necessary. Biodiversity and strategic urban planning, property and social housing, opposites come together in the ideals of the firm based in Milan in Italy, Shanghai in China and Tirana in Albania. A sister agency for interior design, Stefano Boeri Interiors, was also created in response to the growing demand for modern and environmentally responsible interior design and furnishings.<\/p>\n<p>The playfulness of his practice could also be seen in the exhibition \u201cNous les Arbres\u201d at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fondationcartier.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Fondation Cartier<\/a>, the art centre with architecture by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/en\/architecture\/jean-nouvel-the-beautiful-piece-of-art-of-the-national-museum-of-qatar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jean Nouvel<\/a>. At the heart of more than 200 works by some thirty international artists, the video installation by Stefano Boeri Architetti, created with the philosopher Emanuele Coccia, summed up the possibilities of implementing his concept of \u201cvertical forests\u201d throughout the world. For Stefano Boeri and his team, urban planning and the art of living must be in direct relation with the plant world and especially with trees, which are subject to massive deforestation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_247\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-247\" class=\"center wp-image-247 size-full\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/villas-decoration-stefano-boeri-03.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" width=\"950\" height=\"600\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-247\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DR<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_245\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-245\" class=\"right wp-image-245 size-full\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/villas-decoration-stefano-boeri-05.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Stefano Boeri\" width=\"600\" height=\"850\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-245\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DR<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Achievements_and_challenges_of_Stefano_Boeri_Architetti\"><\/span>Achievements and challenges of Stefano Boeri Architetti<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"An_extraordinary_%E2%80%9Cvertical_forest%E2%80%9D_as_a_model\"><\/span>An extraordinary \u201cvertical forest\u201d as a model<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Nearly 20,000 trees and shrubs cover the two residential towers of 18 and 26 storeys in the Bosco Verticale (literally \u201cvertical forest\u201d) complex, created by Stefano Boeri&#8217;s architecture studio in Milan. This apartment building was established in 2014, after five years of active policy for its location and construction, and is exemplary. It has received awards for excellence in the building industry such as the \u201cBest Tall Building Worldwide\u201d from the CTBUH (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat). This achievement in Italy&#8217;s most industrialised city is linked to three major projects for Stefano Boeri Architetti:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">a worldwide movement that aims to consider the tree as a human being in its own right and a player in the environmental revolution, an \u201cactive partner in the city of the future\u201d;<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">the Forestami programme, which aims to make Milan \u201cthe green capital of Italy\u201d and plans to \u201chouse\u201d three million trees in the city by 2030. The aim is to ensure the reduction of the urban heat island effect with a reduction in temperature of up to two degrees and the absorption of up to five million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per year\u201d, according to Stefano Boeri Architetti;<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">the construction of several vertical forests modelled on their Milanese counterpart, including those in Canc\u00fan in Mexico, Nanjing in China and Eindhoven and Utrecht in the Netherlands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_construction_of_the_Palazzo_Verde_the_%E2%80%9Cgreenest%E2%80%9D_tower_in_Belgium\"><\/span>The construction of the Palazzo Verde, the \u201cgreenest\u201d tower in Belgium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Stefano Boeri&#8217;s future forest-building in Antwerp &#8211; a progressive landmark for the city and its new Nieuw Zuid district &#8211; offers many innovations.
