The wooden structures are equipped with the latest technologies in sustainable and bioclimatic development. The nurseries were also designed to be mass produced and low-cost.
Sticks was devised to have a "keys in hand" logic, bypassing classic, complex decision-making processes. With a temporary 6 year licence, the project avoids the statutory fates which can restrain this type of urban intervention.
"From a simple socio-urban analysis," says Mirco Tardio, "it's possible to notice that gardens and public parks in Paris are placed uniformly in the intramuros and are opened in regular time slots, with curves of influx which are exactly complementary with the nurseries functioning".
For that purpose, Sticks was devised to be installed in unused spaces inside the gardens and public parks of the city, traffic circles and residual spaces.
