Trade Fair Centre in La Spezia / MMAA

The new expo pavilion has been built in a former industrial area previously occupied by a pasta factory. The building [MMAA], which features a coated iron structure and envelope made of titanium-zinc panels and vast glazed surfaces, takes the form of a long parallelepiped, folded over on itself, that soars up from the ground, jutting out sharply at the end to shelter the entrance facing the pre-existing multiplex. The shape of the building is based on the idea of creating an architectural promenade that unfurls from the highest point of the building, through an exhibition space, down to the bottom — via ArchDaily
