The concept done by Studio Marco Piva lies on two main themes: the first is mosaic thought as a “skin”, adhering to surfaces or structures, and following the contours of volumes and buildings. The second is transparency, through which mosaic shows all its qualities: from liquid and crystalline glass consistency to color Zenhanced by the light passing through the tesserae; from the iridescent mosaic surface to light that reveals rainbow shines to the surrounding environment. A perfect framework for presenting collections that range from bathroom fittings to lighting appliances.

The building is laid out on three levels, linked horizontally as well as vertically by emptying the floors, making space for great scenographic displays created with mosaic pieces.
