The wood solutions company FINSA has participated in Fuorisalone 202, within the Tortona Rocks project, last Milan design week was presented, with the CONNECTIVE NATURE by FINSA proposal designed by the architect Izaskun Chinchilla.

The proposal presented a sensory and interactive exhibition that invites reflection through eight interactive "sensory experiences" installations that have nature as a reference, for the place of people in society.
The exhibition designed by Izaskun Chinchilla poses a gymkhana through the pieces whose common thread is the different uses and possibilities of wood in our society, according to the following scheme:
 
• The first consists of a chair with a special backrest configured as a nest, where you can hear the song of a bird.
• The second, centred on water, invites you to compose “a beautiful image” through a small pond, playing with the geometry of shapes inspired by tangrams.
• The third aims to become aware of movement by closing your eyes on a swing.
• The fourth generates a space to tell secrets.

• The fifth experience presents a grassy area where you can lie down and practice relaxation.
• The sixth proposes reciting a haiku, a short poem, to a person who is sitting in front of this installation with coloured seats.
• The seventh is a sofa made up of inflatable elements that yield unevenly to the weight of bodies.
• The latest experience around a circular table proposes that visitors share a pleasant memory as an example of shared memory.
