NOW Summer School is the first educational project hosted by the Vigne Museum,  the permanent installation by Yona Friedman and Jean Baptiste Decavèle conceived in 2014 to celebrate the 100 birthday of Livio Felluga, the founder of the homonymous brand. 

On May 19th, NOW Summer School will present the results of the three residency workshops developed under the title “Architettura per la Natura” that from September to today mark the activities inspired by the installation.

Promoted by the company Livio Felluga and coordinated by NOW New Operation Wave, the workshops deal with all things connected to Nature, environmental protection and respect for man-nature balance.

The outcomes will be represented by three experimental oeuvres, autonomous and modular, a clear recall to Friedman’s circular structure and architectural theory: chairs, shielding, habitable sculptures, unique pieces example of sustainability, self production, self organization and mobility.
