Marino Vittoria
The Island

"A community space built around the therapeutic power of water, a place for internal reflection and healing, a long or short stay to leave the unnecessary behind."

Vittoria's project sits within the ruin of Nettleham Hall, Lincoln and enhances it while preserving its state.

Within its arches, a connection to the past came alive. The rich history of Lincoln, once a Roman town, intertwined with the project, adding an unexpected layer of significance.

The notion that water could play a central role in restoring the ruin's past, marked by a devastating fire, became deeply ingrained into the project.

The Island provides a space for individuals to find relief and clarity away from the demands of everyday life and places importance on mental and physical well-being.
