Zero error is an illusion. In complex organizations, errors are inevitable. The difference lies in the ability to recognize them, limit their effects and transform them into learning opportunities.

Connections
In the flow of the city, the campus is not a boundary but a point of passage. From above, Milan opens up beyond the lines of the buildings and continues within them. Architectures speak to one another, spaces meet, inside and outside follow each other without ever separating. It is a continuity built day by day, even when unseen. Because it is through connections that a community expands, intertwining with the city and those who live it.
