The “tangenziale” of Milan is a ring of by-pass highways built around the city since the mid-'60s, with the aim of easing traffic congestion. In this project I show the relationship between these highways and the environment from two points of view: from the outside, highlighting the difficult integration with both residential and rural areas; and from the inside, showing their aspect of non-place and the isolation from the surrounding landscape.
