For four consecutive editions, Echo Labs brought ideas and creativity to ROM-E, transforming Villa Borghese Park into a hub for raising awareness about sustainability. This three-year journey combined education, design, and concrete action, engaging children, students, and adults in hands-on creative activities.
In 2023, we introduced new experiences and collaborations with partners such as Linaria and Laboratorio Linfa. Biodiversity and eco-design became central themes, inviting people of all ages to take part in more interactive and in-depth experiences.
The 2024 edition focused on the future, addressing topics such as design and urban regeneration. Participants were encouraged to imagine sustainable solutions that combine creativity with environmental responsibility.
In 2025, Echo Labs returned to ROM-E with its open-air woodworking workshop, offering an upcycling experience immersed in the green setting of Villa Borghese Park. Through reclaimed wood, artisanal gestures and shared creativity, children and adults transformed waste materials into unique objects, rediscovering the value of making things together and of a tangible, hands-on approach to sustainability.
