Design Proposal

_ Our proposal aims TO AVOID STRONG PHYSICAL INTERVENTIONS in the old city IN FAVOR OF SMALL INTERVENTIONS. The implementation of the project do not touch or destroy any object or the landscape in the city. These interventions will be coherent with the historical context and nevertheless they will guarantee high impact in the city requalification.
