Motorcity, an innovative high quality project for a new city dedicated to sports, entertainment, tourism and research activities, is beginning.

This is not just a new project: here a new town is going to grow up, with the aim of creating a new attraction center; this will not only be able to stand comparison with the best similar examples throughout the world, but it will be able to offer new interpretative keys about the themes of city, of modern man and his new recreational and relationship necessities, too.

A new town, devoted to free time and to knowledge: as the philosopher A. Koyrè sayd, “it is not just from work that a civilization comes from: it is also from leisure time and from games.” And from an ancient saying: “Every very life-experienced man does not use to distinguish between work and free time, between his mind and his body, between education and recreation.

He just pursues his idea of excellence in every thing he does, and lets other people around him judge whether he is working or playing. He just thinks he is always doing both of them, toge- ther.”

A town is not constituted only of stone, wood, concrete.

It is not just streets, palaces, parking or houses. Town means Architecture. This is the reason why Motorcity needed a long and scrupulous designing work. A town is made of an ensemble of spaces which contain, enhance and encourage people’s activities. A town should also be able to breed emotions.

As Le Corbusier used to say: “the building is made to sustain; Architecture is made to affect.” Sports and knowledge, fun and learning, free time and work, good architecture: this is, in a very short synthesis, Motorcity: The new life dimension.
