The small drinking fountain (Fontanella in Italian) is an icon of Italian cities. Milan, capital of fashion and source of new trends for the world, will launch the first urban street furniture realized in "digital fabrication" and aimed at giving a new identity to the drinking fountain, i.e. the "Invisible Fontanella".

This idea was awarded by the contest "cap4ideas", promoted by the Cap Group and designed by Marzia Tolomei and Carlotta Antonietti, designers from the Politecnico in Milan. Invisible fountains will be installed in the eight most sustainable metropolitan areas around Milan. The logic behind this initiative is to promote a new character for old urban street furniture, able to capture the attention of people passing by and amaze them.
