Canopy over Piazza Faber,Sardinia

Renzo piano and alvisi kirimoto + partners

Renzo piano and alvisi kirimoto + partners have added a vibrant and ever-changing installation to the rustic piazza faber in sardinia the project comprises 12 suspended elements set against a backdrop of historical stone buildings and the market arcade. in celebration of the light and colors of the landscape, green, gold, red and blue fabric sails fluctuate in the air as if carried by the wind, finally resting on a web of wires that stretch between the buildings. The sails can be rolled up though a motorized system responding to climate condition.
