Wonderlad will be a place where seriously ill children and their families can engage in activities of daily life. The result is that WonderLAD is their temporary home during the clinical treatment in local hospitals. The design seeks to create a non-hospital environment, which provides a pleasant backdrop to small patients during the difficult period of their lives.

The main motive of the proposal is to view the Sicilian countryside. In this landscape are built villages and farms, small structures that complements its character. Instead of one large mass therefore we propose a series of smaller buildings in traditional and classical intelligible form "house". This structure is organized around a courtyard, which will be the heart of the center.

Technically, the building is designed with the aim of creating a "self-sufficient house" so as to minimize its environmental impact. Construction of the building is designed from the micro-laminated beech wood panels. This material is chosen because of its gentle properties of the environment and resistance to seismic activity.
