Nivola’s highly original project exalts the physical space as well as the values of the hinterland so emblematically embodied and praised by the famous Nuoro poet.

The buildings were painted white, and the ground covered with large square sheets of granite, upon which were placed the blocks of granite with the bronze statuettes of the poet, who is portrayed in the context of different aspects of his professional and private life.
