Built after Giuseppe Marinoni’s design had won an international competition, the Learning Centre FLA (Lombardy Foundation for the Environment) at Seveso looks on the outside like a primary volume, divided up by vertical fissures and sectioned by the glass front: a wing of the square and proscenium opening onto the town. The rigorous elliptical layout of the plan is in fact a collage of irregular forms suited to a variety of uses: conference rooms, exhibition spaces, offices, a media library. The architectural conception exploits natural light as a means of creating mutable environmental qualities. The artificial lighting, on the other hand, draws attention to the spaces generated inside, visible outside at night as two-dimensional figures projected onto the glass screen of the façade.

Introduction
Built in the 2012 after Giuseppe Marinoni’s design had won an international competition, the Learning centre FLA (Lombardy Foundation for the Environment) at Seveso looks on the outside like a primary volume, divided up by vertical fissures and sectioned by the glass front: a wing of the square and proscenium opening onto the town. The rigorous elliptical layout of the plan is in fact a collage of irregular forms suited to a variety of uses: conference rooms, exhibition spaces, offices, a media library. The architectural conception exploits natural light as a means of creating mutable environmental qualities. The artificial lighting, on the other hand, draws attention to the spaces generated inside, visible outside at night as two-dimensional figures projected onto the glass screen of the façade.
FLA
The Lombardy Foundation for the Environment FLA is a non-profit organisation and scientific foundation set up by the Lombardy Regional Council in 1986 with the aim of giving support to local public and private agencies in protection of the environment, drawing on an authoritative network of professionals and university teachers. In over twenty years of activity, the expertise of the foundation, increasingly structured around the principal environmental questions, has led to the realisation of numerous projects, allowing it to become a point of reference for research and consciousness-raising at the local and international level.
The purpose of FLA’s activity is to offer high-level scientific advice to political decision-makers and the public, carrying out programmes of research, education and training in the environmental field and, in particular, providing support for the development of an awareness and understanding of the environmental policies of the Lombardy Region and for their promotion through appropriate means of communication. Its close collusion with the academic world in Italy and abroad ensures that the Foundation is kept constantly up-to-date with environmental developments, something that in its collaboration with local bodies translates into a fruitful fund of knowledge that can be used to support concrete policies of governance of the region. These links with the scientific community and accreditation at the secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change have allowed the foundation to build up a network of international expertise of an environmental character in support of the ‘Lombard knowledge system’.
FLA works with the Lombardy Regional Council, the Lombard universities, local authorities and research institutes, performing a concrete service of public utility. An Advisory Board, on which sit the rectors of the universities of Milan, Pavia and Milan-Bicocca, Milan Polytechnic and the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, oversees the scientific planning. The Foundation, in keeping with its statute that specifies its essentiality, favours the dissemination of environmental culture at all levels; for this reason, it devotes itself to numerous activities of Environmental Education, drawing up teaching syllabi for compulsory education programmes, awarding postgraduate study grants and organizing university master [...]
