The project utilizes second-hand chairs to strengthen community bonds and address challenges related to crime and socio-economic disparities in Milan's Umbria Molise Calvarate Community.Residents share chairs and stories to familiarize newcomers with the community's history and promote inclusivity. Involving residents in the renovation enhances their sense of belonging, while the addition of red lines on the building introduces a new aesthetic. The exhibition space integrates artworks from different eras, transforming the area into a vibrant environment that encourages community harmony.
