following up on our previous coverage of the project, barcelona-based practice nabito architects
(alessandra faticanti, roberto ferlito) has sent us images of the recently completed 'sensational park',
a new public space in the neighbourhood of corso lazio in frosinone, italy. aiming to provide
a relational space that fills in the existing social void in a playful, sensorial and interactive manner,
the park is the starting point to a masterplan to renew the housing neighbourhood.

conceived as a 'personal living room in a public realm', the park features both artificial
and natural elements that stimulate the five human sense in a sequential manner.
the garden is planted with a variety of different materials and vegetation to relate to
a metaphor of the space. the ground level changes in elevation, with a network of
winding pathways defining an arrangement of conic protrusions. the walkway encourages
visitors to take in the park in parts, incorporating a sense of discovery to the experience.
