Highlights bosco verticale | tirana presentation

bosco verticale
tirana presentation

On 6 June 2025, as part of Bread & Heart Tirana, a festival that brings together 150 of the most important figures in international architecture, there will be a presentation of the volume Bosco Verticale, Morphology of a Vertical Forest. The complete monograph, edited by Stefano Boeri Architetti, is dedicated to the project on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of its inauguration.

The presentation, held at the COD – Centre for Openness and Dialogue in Tirana, includes a dialogue between Stefano Boeri and Francesca Cesa Bianchi, partner of Stefano Boeri Architetti, preceded by an institutional greeting from Edi Rama, the Albanian Prime Minister.

The book, published by Rizzoli New York and edited by Stefano Boeri Architetti, traces the history of the project, with an editorial structure that evokes the growth of a tree with its roots, trunk and branches. The concept stems from a blend of intuition, innovation and artistic inspiration, fostering a dynamic and creative environment. The project’s genesis, including its structural, technological and environmental challenges, as well as its construction site, the impact of the Bosco Verticale on the area’s transformation and the urban landscape, are all associated with the trunk. The branches are of the utmost importance to the Bosco Verticale. Firstly, the positioning of the building in the context of international architecture marks a change of trajectory towards the integration of living nature in the urban environment. Secondly, the autonomous path serves as a symbol and catalyst of biodiversity in the collective popular imagination.
