The 7th edition of the Italian Pool Award - that was born in 2010 by the editorial staff of Piscine Oggi magazine to enhance the excellence of the Italian pool industry - has officially started.

The participation in the award competition is free and open to everyone: companies, project studios, professionals and normal citizens with pools. As every year, during ForumPiscine there will be a photographic exhibition that will show the audience all the pools participating in the Award and it will be available for the entire duration of the event, from 16th to 18th February 2017.

On Friday, ForumPiscine will organize the Award ceremony. The stage indeed will host the representatives of the winning pools, who will receive a parchmentand the prestigious bronze statuette by the designer Osvaldo Casanova and made by the old Fonderia Merighi Arte of Bologna.

As the tradition wants, the jury will be made up of a group of architects, designers and technical experts in the field of pools, architecture and landscape. The pools will be published also in the fanpage of Editrice Il Campo on Facebook, without any contact reference. Users will be invited to vote for their favourite pool with a "like" and the pool receving the highest number of likes will be awarded a parchment on the stage along with the other winning pools.
