"Our project addresses the theme of “Re-sourcing” primarily through social dynamics rather than purely material resources. We aim to strengthen existing community bonds by proposing a new way of living inspired by the Learning City concept. This approach materializes through the creation of a series of hybrid spaces dedicated to collective uses: new facilities and third places designed to host associative, educational, and civic activities."
