Text description provided by the architects. The Incubator for Art, also known as Stecca 3, is located in the heart of Milan’s Porta Nuova, a district that since 2005 has been the subject of an extensive urban redevelopment project. Relatively small in size compared to the monumental verticality of the skyscrapers that surround it, the new building faces south on the Parco della Biblioteca degli Alberi while it is flanked to the northeast by the Riccardo Catella Foundation building with its garden. In this context of significant pre-existing buildings and green spaces, the incubator plays the link role between a part of the city and the large park under construction.
