The Ritual
Tre Ponti
Physical
Not a beach in the conventional sense — a point of access to the sea within the port city of Livorno.
Social
Used by local residents as an everyday part of city life rather than a seasonal destination; people access the water directly from the urban edge.
Context
Livorno was founded by the Medici as a planned port in the 16th century. Here, the relationship with the water is daily rather than seasonal, reflecting the city's identity as a working port rather than a resort town.
