Restaurtion of an ancient spring and arrangement of paths in Favale di Malvaro
The work presented here is a natural source, which from historical research has been traced back to the end of the nineteenth century, when a wash house was built there. The wash house is set into the hillside; presents a kind of front that reproduces a gable roof, with the 2 lateral containment walls that follow the slope of the hill and in the center 3 sloping basins that collect the water that flows from the source, the power plant was once used as a wash house. The floor is made of cobblestones.
The whole was in a poor state of conservation, the restoration project consists of cleaning the surfaces and restoring the preserved portions of plaster with hydraulic mortars based on natural lime. The project then focused on enhancing the building through lighting. In addition to the restoration of this building, the assignment also included the construction of a new path that led from the road level, via an inclined ramp, to the plateau where the source rises and where there is a small play area for children.

Finale Ligure (SV - Italy) / Restoration of a terraced house in
the old town centre
This fishing village is one of the most enchanting places in the
west Riviera; in particular the Finalborgo, the medieval heart
towards the inland. It has preserved the old town centre. Here we
have restored a block of houses composed by low, aligned buildings
that formed the walls.
