Parco Trapezio
Parco Trapezio covers more than 42,000 square metres of green space in the Santa Giulia district of Milan. It opened in September 2013 as part of a larger urban renewal project for the neighbourhood. Franco Giorgetta designed the grounds together with the technical office of the Comune di Milano.
The park sits between residential buildings, which makes it a convenient spot for locals looking to unwind. Seven play areas dot the grounds, with paths for walking and cycling plus separate areas set aside for skating. The planting mixes trees and shrubs, among them wild cherries, apple trees, roses and American grapevines.
Raised bastions frame a central plaza, and from up there you can take in a panoramic view of the district. The middle of the park stays mostly open and grassy, leaving room for larger gatherings and activities. The trees are still young, so the park keeps growing into its design.
