square poggi del sasso
poggi del sasso (gr)2013
To change a heavy traffic road into a place where people can rest and get together. To give an identity to an area that improperly replaced the historical centre definitively isolated from the new provincial infrastructure. To allow people to weekly visit the doctor’s office. To complete the revitalization of the area, which began with the conversion of the primary school into a food emporium. To fight the dictatorship of the arrogant and presumptuous vehicle traffic. The square regains its vitality thanks to the new emporium and “le scuole” inn, a small hotel created by renovating the Ardenghi building.

All these objectives were part of the project for the design of a new square in Poggi del Sasso, where our previous experience in traffic calming allowed us to find a solution for all parties involved, i.e. truckers, residents, and peasants unfamiliar with the urban furniture of the city.
