Green Storm

The park of King Ladislao is a historical garden of 4,500 square meters hidden in the heart of the historic center of Naples. Despite being one of the very few green areas in this area of ​​the city, the park is a little frequented and unknown to most of the neighborhood’s inhabitants.

Verde Bufera (Green Storm) is a participatory process of urban reactivation carried out by ReGeneration, a project carried out by Dedalus and ZAP! which aims to foster meeting and cultural cross-fertilization between teenagers and young people of different cultures and backgrounds through the rediscovery of places to spend their time of life and fun well.

Over the course of a year, the girls and boys of the Porta Capuana neighborhood studied a project to reactivate King Ladislao’s garden, drawing community maps and botanical maps, creating a botanical path that described the plant species to the inhabitants of the neighborhood and planning an event for the collective re-appropriation of the green space, taking care of its artistic direction, creation and communication.

During the urban regeneration process, the ReGeneration team designed and built a small garden within the park. Go here to see their work!
