Fondazione Pietro Rossini Pavilion
Fondazione Rossini - 2008
Designed as a visitors’ center for a ten-hectare sculpture park, the pavilion is a total fusion of art, architecture and landscape. For green design purposes, it is built with regionally available materials from within a ten-kilometer radius. An earth and vegetation sheltered roof augments seasonal climate control. The building is bonded together by a network of cast stone ‘T’ shaped columns, which also provide a ribbon-like wall system along walkways and strategically located sculpture bases throughout the property.
