Drawing inspiration from the surrounding environment, engineers designed a project which is still fascinating and exciting for its simplicity and logistics: the result is a perfect mix between the evergreen Mediterranean scrub, the rocks naturally emerging from the walls, and the construction of the system itself, built of local stone in order to make it blend even more with the typical moonscape of <strong>Gallura<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;
