Federico Babina's Lunette pavilion and Francesca Molteni's namesake docu-film explore the theme of the threshold in architecture and celebrate 40 years of Edilpiù's history.


On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of its foundation, Edilpiù www.edilpiu.eu – the leading Italian brand in the sector of high quality doors and windows and a pioneer in the integration of new technologies – presents Openings, a dedicated cultural and artistic project exploring one of the company’s closest themes: the concept of threshold, of openness and of the relationship between inside and outside.


Openings does not strive to be only the celebration of the past, but above all, to trace the path to the future. During a time when an unexpected pandemic has changed ordinary life environments, and redefined the boundaries of living and sharing, Edilpiù wants to symbolize breath, relationship and dialogue through the expressive language of architecture.


In the historic setting of central Lugo (Ravenna), the city where Edilpiù is based, and specifically in the garden at the foot of the Rocca (Este bastion fortress), on June 17th, 2021, Lunette will be inaugurated – an unprecedented installation created by Barcelona-based Italian architect and illustrator Federico Babina, who explores the concept of the window, starting from a broader reflection on architecture and the elements that compose it. "Windows are the eyes of architecture" is how Babina invites us, through the articulated openings of Lunette, to look at living with a different perspective and to browse the installation as if we were walking through a city, peeking at domestic interiors, to rethink the window as a frame capable of delimiting and emphasizing the stories and landscapes that surround it.
