The wall made of wire mesh is designed to wrap a temporary structure of the former cooperative society for food distribution Coop Operaie of Trieste. After the transition period the structure containing the commercial activity has been dismantled and the wall remained.
With a play of oblique lines, there was built a structure that supports a cantilevered metal stairs which joins the road level with the plane of the above square. The whole structure has been executed in galvanized steel and covered with panels of galvanized and electrowelded mesh fixed on a secondary tubular frame.
The project has paid special attention to the study of landscape: over the years the large bulkhead has been wrapped in ivy and jasmine that with the changing of the seasons changes in color and permeability.
