This space for the interpretation of the history of the marble industry and its exploitation is formalized through a succession of structural ribs that evoke the geometrization of nature, of the quarry, characteristic of this type of extraction.
Arranged in a pre-existing space, it creates its own interior place, allowing you to enter it, abstracting you from what came before.
The succession of ribs, of full and empty, allows, in turn, the duality of the crossed look, inside-outside, enriching the experience.
The graphics and explanatory texts are arranged between the ribs. The exhibits, in showcases or in the air, allow a clear historical order and suggestive context, adding here, the architecture as a sensory experience.
