The Story
My father was a hand-shovel landscaper for 60 years in Switzerland. 500 tools in his garage, every one with a story. When he passed in 2020, those tools sat there. Every neighborhood has a garage like his. Every neighborhood has an artist who teaches, a sailor who gives lessons, a chef who shares recipes, a maker who fixes things. They just haven't met yet. La Piazza is the town square where they find each other. No commissions. No algorithms. Just people helping people.
Built from a camper van in Trapani, Sicily. 2026.
