Viscio Urban Design, street furniture in Madrepietra
Items such as litter bins, benches, planters and bollards, are realized in a traditional way and with numerical control machines for serial production, able to quickly, easily and effectively respond to the many needs of the customer. Madrepietra is a sedimentary limestone extracted in Apulia at the foot of the Gargano. The extraction area is the first mining center in southern Italy and the second national basin after that of Carrara. Constituted 96% of calcium carbonate, which allows to achieve exceptional levels of firmness and resistance to atmospheric agents, the Apricena stone shows oscillating shades of beige, ivory and pink (depending on variety), with frequent subtle and sinuous veins that characterize the surface. The performance made it protagonist both in interior decor and outdoor products, such as the decorations in the palace of Caserta, numerous palaces in Rome, or the Church of San Giovanni Rotondo by Renzo Piano.
