SUMMARY:6th biennale svizzera del territorio 2026 – Handle with Care
LOCATION:Istituo Internazionale di Architettura
DESCRIPTION:<p>From 1 to 3 October\, the biennale svizzera del territorio r
 eturns for its sixth edition\, centred at Villa Saroli and spread across L
 ugano\, Mendrisio and Bellinzona.</p>\n<p>The event is organised by Istitu
 to Internazionale di Architettura under the direction of architect Ludovic
 a Molo\, and brings together emerging architects selected by an internatio
 nal committee\, conferences\, round tables\, an urban walk and participato
 ry activities open to the public.</p>\n<p>The title "Handle with Care" is 
 a timely invitation to reflect on the urgency of a responsible architectur
 e centred on care – one that repairs\, maintains and regenerates through
  attuned listening to places and to the pre-existing\, and through communi
 ty engagement. A complex alternative to the easier path of demolition and 
 construction\, hallmarks of an architecture that consumes territory and re
 sources.</p>\n<p>Thursday 1 October opens with a conference at the Accadem
 ia di Architettura di Mendrisio – an evening of debate within the archit
 ecture and design community\, dedicated to the values of political and civ
 ic responsibility within the discipline\, addressing fundamental topics su
 ch as housing\, reuse and citizen participation.</p>\n<p>Friday 2 October
 \, organised in collaboration with the Canton Ticino Department of Territo
 ry and the City of Bellinzona\, opens with an urban walk through the place
 s that best represent the city's transformation – from industrial fringe
 s to public spaces\, from rewilding areas to new residential and school hu
 bs. This is followed by the opening of the Symposium at the Institute of R
 esearch in Biomedicine (IRB). This day offers a reflection on the vocation
  of a distinctive territory: a bridge between northern and southern Europe
 \, situated between the Lombardy metropolis and the rest of Switzerland\, 
 marked by complex dynamics and fragile balances. Two round tables invite p
 articipants to interrogate these conditions\, imagine the future vocation 
 of the territory and identify the tools with which to act in the present.<
 /p>\n<p>In the evening\, the projects in the park of Villa Saroli are offi
 cially inaugurated. The 10 installations selected through the Call for Act
 ion are unveiled and will remain on view to the public until 28 November.<
