Coles Ispace: A Journey Into Emotions at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Ispaces are a territorial redevelopment project born and developed in Rossa, in the canton of Grisons, Switzerland. They are an integral part of the broader initiative known as The Rossa Project, a collection of artistic, architectural, and cultural activities aimed at engaging the local population in social and sustainable initiatives capable of generating interest from external audiences.
Among the planned initiatives are the construction of private residences, facilities dedicated to cultural activities, such as a library and a youth hostel, the Temple of Thought, and the Ispaces themselves. These Ispaces are sculptures made from local larch wood, distributed throughout the forests surrounding Rossa, and can be visited along an immersive nature trail. The eight structures are inspired by geometric shapes - sphere, cube, pyramid, and hourglass - sometimes combined to create more complex compositions. The Ispaces explore and apply the principles of spatial psychology, with the goal of evoking specific emotions and sensations. While common elements may be identified in the exploration experience, the project takes into account all psychological, behavioural, and social aspects.
Ispaces also embody the philosophy of the studio behind the initiative: the awareness that space exerts a profound impact on us and the ability to integrate principles of psychology and neuroarchitecture into present and future projects. It is not merely about constructing spaces but about creating places that enhance the potential of architecture, transforming design into fuel for a meaningful experience that puts humanity at its core.
