The intervention area is located in Frigole (hamlet of Lecce), and is bounded by the perimeter of the Special Area of Conservation named Aquatina . This area is located within a larger district, with a high density of sites of Community interest, bordered to the north by the Rauccio regional park, to the south by the Le Cesine state reserve and towards the sea by Sic Mare. The Acquatina basin is a fragile area, subjected to opposing forces that determine its degradation: coastal erosion on the sea side and human action on the land side, with the consequent artificialization and urbanization of the coast and the fragmentation of the habitat. The project aimed to enhance the naturalness of the site, using naturalistic engineering and landscape architecture techniques to make possible to use it sustainably. The main purpose was to combine the protection of natural environments with their tourist fruition, pivotal point around which turns the environmental sustainability, in an attempt to preserve the natural landscape and the environmental assets for the future generations.
