de Gayardon Bureau together with arch. Mimì Coviello has been part of a team to design the system of public spaces at Borgo La Martella, outside Matera - Italy. GREEN STRATEGY –INTENSIFY GEOGRAPHY Green spaces become a spine that continues through the heart of the village offering a succession of different activities and landscapes. The areas lack in continuity and are strongly disconnected from the village; spaces are poorly maintained and need a consistent upgrade of urban quality. Public spaces are followed by alternating gardens, parks and squares that follow the continuity of a main path easy to perceive as the link for a unitary conception. Even the choice of colorful and diverse new trees, according to the different functional areas promotes the identity and variety of open spaces.
