In 2006 the Municipality of Venice, proprietors of the Scarpa-Volo estate in Mazzorbo island, announced a competition for the management of the entire area. We were asked by the family of wine producers Bisol, in a partnership with Vento di Venezia yacht center, to coordinate the preparation of the proposal.

The competition winning project is centred on the integration between the recovery of production and development of the Lagoon’s traditional vegetable and wine making activities, and the development of an “Environment Promotion Centre” aimed at the exchange of culture and experience in the sustainable environment sector at a regional and European level.
