Imagine befriending the sea. This could be the key to everything.

Venice is losing the battle to save itself. The challenge is the nature of the location.

Imagine re-imagining the nature of the location. Imagine turning the sea into benefit. Imagine the city-inside-a-lagoon-inside-the-lagoon.

An engineered lagoon city.
