The second semester of the landscape architecture course had the opportunity this year to spend a week in Verbania on the Lago.

Maggiore. Many historical sites like the Isola Madre or the botanical gardens of the Villa

Taranto were visited. A visit to the Parco Dora in Turin was also on the agenda. The highlight, however, was the Fiat Museum, which has converted the factory’s own racetrack on the roof into a roof garden with flower beds.
