DIGSAU Wins a Merit Award for their “The Cove at the Piazza” Project

2022 AIA Philadelphia Design Awards - General Built Category

Congratulations to DIGSAU on winning a Merit Award for their “The Cove at the Piazza” Project.

The Cove at the Piazza reshapes a grand but underused urban space by introducing landscape gardens and a variety of wellness, fitness, and recreation spaces. While the original scale of the Piazza was well suited for large events, its new configuration creates a series of smaller spaces that are better suited for day to day use. Inverting familiar forms and sensations of urban life, the space is transformed into something unexpected, calming, and cleansing.

The Cove blurs the boundaries between public,semi-public and private space, and consists of a new garden-center pool complex and the conversion of vacant interior space into a new fitness and wellness center.
