fontana di Sallo

INFO

The area of intervention is located on a pedestrian path connecting Olivone village to Oratorio San Bartolomeo. The historical fountain rise in the middle of a small agglomeration of vernacular buildings, a location with a great potential for a public space.

The students of last year’s edition of the Summer School suggested to add to the two remaining basins out of stone a third one. This makes reference to the past, where the fountain also consisted of 3 basins. The contemporary interpretation of a fountain our of concrete also stabilizes the heavy other basins. Small refined metal details complete the fountain. Around the fountain a new stone pavement was realized to connect the area to the also restructured paths connecting the site.
