Shanghai – “Stefano Boeri Architetti”, founded by Stefano Boeri and Michele Brunello, is sending architect Boeri on a mission in Shanghai, China, where he will carry out meetings and activities led by Director of Shanghai Office Xu Yibo. Among the scheduled events, the architect will be at the Italian Embassy to present the professional and cultural activities of his office. “I arrived in Shanghai – Boeri wrote on his Facebook profile – and I visited the Dobe, a center for design and creativity development promoted by the city of Shanghai and the City of Florence, with the support of UNESCO. The most interesting thing is Dobe’s agility, which allows to develop trade and cultural exchanges among creative businesses without the mediation of Embassies or Chambers of Commerce. This model should be replicated in other Italian cities, perhaps even in Milan.” (9Colonne)
