This was such an interesting place to visit. I enjoyed scoping out the architecture, and I adored the sound of the bells.
I was so fortunate to see bell's being poured the day I visited. It was fascinating to watch. Molten metal was poured into the molds...so exciting. It was a grand adventure.

This is a really cool artist studio with nice architecture and pretty sweet art. We also got to see them pour bronze which was cool but also looked hot AF. Free to walk around and look.
Located in Paradise Valley, Arizona, Cosanti is the headquarters, foundry, studio, and gallery for Paolo Soleri Bronze & Ceramic Windbells & Sculptures. Cosanti has been the headquarters for this nonprofit educational organization dedicated to architectural research. Cosanti offers handcrafted bronze or ceramic bells, pots, planters, jewelry, and other products. Cosanti is the vision of Paolo Soleri brought to life. The word Cosanti is the combination of Italian words cosa (things) and anti (against), thus describing the minimalistic and sustainable vision for Soleris archeological communities.
