The project enhances a complex territory through a simple idea that interacts with the different landscape systems that characterize the coastal area of Ravenna. The coastline is designed as a sequence of intersecting scenarios that host different ways of perceiving and “living” the space. This line is seen not only as an element to be unified and continuous but as something belonging to a much wider territory that can highlight its peculiar characteristics. The opportunity to rethink a coherent system of equipment, passages, and street furniture along the coastal strip is also a way to perceive and appreciate the depth of landscape situations.
