Termoli_Waterfront
::European Design Competition for the Redevelopment of Termoli’s North Waterfront::
The design strategy was guided by the city’s historic footprint.
The main objective of the project was to privilege the view towards the sea, introducing horizontal panoramic telescope like volumes that turn their “eyes” towards the marine horizon.
The project proposes a direct connection between the littoral street and the beach through cross continuous distribution layouts. Through this approach the architectural elements are completely integrated with the surrounding environment: nature penetrates deep inside the slab and guides the visitor in the continuous alternation between voids and dematerialized volumes.
The dematerialization of volumes is made possible by the choice of materials, such as wood and glass, that lighten the impact of the double height structures.
