Stefano Boeri Interiors works in collaboration with Timberland to create a new floating forest that essentially is a tree-filled pavilion that floats on top of the Darsena waters in Milan. Boeri states that “This Floating Forest is a green graft in the heart of Milan, an ecosystem with a very high variety of species, capable of multiplying natural biodiversity that will activate environmental benefits associated with urban forestry also in connection with other green spaces in the city.” It has two entrances and is designed to be multisensory.

The brand talks about the floating forest, stating that is it "not only to convey new forms of environmental responsibility and new ways of occupying and transforming urbanized spaces but to offer a place of intersection and reconciliation between the natural sphere and human beings.”
