100 Scale Festival – m²ft architects

100 Scale Festival Installation

 

Location: Potenza, IT

Year: 2017

Type: International Competition

Status: Completed

Team: Flavio Martella, Maria Vittoria Tesei, Andrea Di Nezio

Through the combination of three simple wooden modules, painted by a Roman artist, we propose to create a scenario where people can feel at ease in experiencing the installation, and in the meantime breathe new life into the place, thanks to the numerous situations created by the combination of the three modules. These guarantee speed and ease of assembly combined with good durability, and allow the achievement of daring and unique solutions, staying under EUR 3000 by creating more than 150 modules including lighting and tubing.
With these characteristics we can therefore create our own 6m high sustainable iaccara, the fulcrum around which the installation revolves, which, thanks to the presence of common water nebulisers that spray steam from the crown of the tower towards the sky using the pressure of the nearby fountain, and the red and orange LED lights that illuminate the steam itself, manages to bring the iaccara “on fire” in Potenza back to life, giving the city back its ancient tradition.
