public square in  Scandicci (FI)  

The garden of S. Giusto in Signano was transformed into an area that satisfies the varied needs of the neighbourhood's inhabitants. Several existing elements inspired the design: trees that naturally define the main square; spontaneous paths that had been created through the existing flower beds, and which now define the new walkways; the existence of meeting places, or 'urban living rooms', which have been turned into small sub-areas with seating. There is a large fountain with jets of water emerging from the ground and a generous playground situated in the square’s most sheltered area.
