The original commission aimed for a fishermen facility made of 20 workshops. But after in-depth analysis of the site, its history, and the municipality needs; Buzzo Spinelli Architecture proposed to enhance the program by adding a sales area and an urban space.

Following their lead, the general contractor wished to complete this program with an office for the fisherman, another one for the SNSM, and a community hall. Exchanges of views between both parties gave birth to the final project.
More than just a facility for fishermen, L’OrtuDuzzi project added a new chapter to Bonifacio’s story with its material and its endemic gardens.

 

Terms: Complete mission, MOP, OPC and SYN regulations, listed site, ZPPAUP, building permits with ministerial approval.
The Building

Named after its location; L’OrtuDuzzi, in Bonifacian ?Gardens where the fresh water runs?, is the chosen site for the fishermen to carry on with the tale of their city.

Those gardens with their spring water, ideal for vegetation, reveal a peaceful place to pass on ancestral skills.
