21 Jan A pool with water game and a waterfall in San Colombano
In the historical park of Villa Mimosa in San Colombano the rainwater collection system was mostly done naturally. Currently, the urban interventions carried out have imposed new artificial collection systems.
However, the project was inspired by the principles of the past through the creation of small streams and waterfalls, made with local stones (Presolana strain). The new waterfall fits into the context by creating a water game that gives sound and atmosphere.
