PIAZZA KENNEDY in RAVENNA, ITALY

RAVENNA IS THE CITY OF BYZANTINE MOSAICS, of theTeodoricos Mausoleum and Dantes Tomb.

Stormwater in the urban landscape offers great potential not simply as energy but also because in the city the water is a wonderful and unexpected urban landscape.

The main idea of my project is to transform Ravenna into a WATER SENSITIVE CITY: the places of this city could be used as a big basin to capture rain and use it for irrigating plants, for washing streets, and for fighting fire. RAIN is much more than this.
When dancers are performing on a stage covered by few centimeters of rain you can appreciate the symbolic meaning of the water
or when you are relaxing, drinking a coffee or eating some italian food hearing the water melody.
