La casa delle ferule
Altamura - second prize
Located in Lama di Cervo, in the newly realized neighbourhood called “Trentacapilli”, South West of SS 96, which divides the city of Altamura (BA) in two, is La casa delle Ferule, the proposal for the new kindergarten and primary school. The urban context presents, in its close surroundings, houses mainly built in the last twenty years aggregated in a not very compact urban fabric and located on the edge of what constitutes the typical rural landscape of the Alta Murgia Park. We are on the edge of the built city, where concrete blocks, asphalt, terraced houses and the “pop-modern” villas come to an end and where the almond trees, ferule, terebinths, olive groves, Mediterranean figs and Lino di Tommasini are born; where the Endemico delle Fate whitens in the green.
