bunker is an architecture and research studio based in Milan
Inside the historic Viale Monza municipal market building, a discreet opening leads into a black box: an autonomous interior space housing a system of stairs and walkways. This short vertical path guides the visitor above the technical ceiling, rising beyond the standard line of sight. From this new vantage point, an unexpected view opens up of the building’s grand original vault, which is usually hidden from view. Monade Capsule fits into this context as a minimal yet significant intervention, capable of sparking reflection on living, individual space, and the relationship with the city's collective structure. Conceived as an experimental module, suspended between isolation and belonging, the capsule invites us to question the conditions of contemporary urban life.
“Monade Capsule offers a physical and conceptual reflection on urban growth and living in the contemporary city”
