Terraforma Festival 2017, Villa Arconati, from 23th to 25th June, Bollate, Italy.
Terraforma Playground is a structure made by Agreement to Zinedine and Parasite 2.0 with the support of Operativa Arte Contemporanea within the space of Villa Arconati during the Terraforma Festival 2017. Terraforma Playground is a place for interaction largely based on the activities that it can support. Sitting on Terraforma Playground, for instance, means to be disturbed by the soft, vulnerable shapes capable of brooding about the actions done and accomplished. Terraforma Playground is the sum of all the colors that an early summer park may donate; a vision that can be actually molded as a substantial shape. Terraforma Playground can be an architecture or – even more – a place where kids get together every day asking it: are you an enemy or an animal? Terraforma Playground is conceived as a non-regulated free game. The project is based on the tradition of the post-war adventure playgrounds; a pedagogical interaction tool in which all-age children users can experience new ways of collective thinking and synergy between different subjects and habitats.

[READ]Parasite 2.0 is an architecture, design and research studio based in Milan, founded in 2010 by Stefano Colombo, Eugenio Cosentino and Luca Marullo Viola.
Over the years, the studio has collaborated with international brands and institutions including Apple, IKEA, Missoni and the Venice Architecture Biennale, and has presented its work in museums and major cultural platforms worldwide, including Fondazione Prada, MAXXI – National Museum of 21st Century Arts, Triennale Milano and the Pavillon de l’Arsenal in Paris.
Active for over fifteen years, the studio operates at the intersection of architecture, design and scenography, investigating the transformations of contemporary habitats through a hybrid and experimental approach. Their work challenges conventional architectural models, conceiving space as an open system in constant evolution, activated through use, relationships and collective dynamics.
Working across multiple scales — from spatial design to objects, installations and exhibition environments — Parasite 2.0 develops devices that reinterpret the relationship between individuals, space and context.
Alongside its design practice, Parasite 2.0 maintains an active engagement in teaching and research, holding academic positions at international institutions including the Design Academy Eindhoven.
Among the awards received are the Young Architects Program (YAP) at MAXXI in 2016 and the Main Exhibitor Award at EDIT Napoli Design Fair in 2024.
