Hotel Baglioni Punta Ala

The original structure was a bar/restaurant that was built in front of the beach of Punta Ala in 1960 by a design of the architect Walter di Salvo. It was in those yeas that the reinforced concrete was experienced in its plastic attitudes, ad an experiment, in search of tensions and accelerations that produce complex shapes. The original building, with its spiral shape and large glass wiundown overlooking the sea, was a hymn to this dynamism, assuming immediately in the collective imagination the role of a monument.
