2 photo: Gabriele Basilico photo: Gabriele Basilico Verona Forum Via Belgio Verona The project pursues two choices which defined its shape The first concerns the construction of the side overlooking the street in a compact manner The second defines a place of considerable proportions on the inside devoted to public landscaping In compliance with the planning regulations, the project envisages the creation of two low blocks to make up the street front as it were and buildings of a more vertical character further back This logic best interprets the different 'scale of perception' with which the buildings are destined to be read On one side, the viewpoint of the pedestrian or motorist, who will perceive above all the continuity of the low blocks On the other side, it will be viewed in the role of landmark played by the tall buildings which, standing out against the skyline in this part of the city, become explicit signals of the change it is undergoing Floor area/size m² Mario Bellini s Verona Forum photo: Gabriele Basilico fcampagnari 2

4 photo: Libero Cecchini photo: Libero Cecchini Centre of Photography Scavi Scaligeri Piazza Viviani Verona The entire area is used as an underground exhibition, following the quantity and importance of the finds that have been discovered and ones that were able to describe the city's development from the II to the XIV century The definition of the plan was clear on this point: after the necessary analysis the existing buildings were to be underpinned, proceeding with the construction of a new independent structure consisting in a perimetrical wall and intermediary pilasters, supporting a cement coffered large slab, floored with quartz pebbies and with large round windows that were the visual link between the past and the present The architect summarize as follows: "My decision was to allow archaeology to live together with the city: the emptiness of the round windows makes the spatiality of the find explode upwards while allowing the direct integration of the archaeological space in the contemporary space It is the city of yesterday that is living in harmony with the city of today" photo: Libero Cecchini 1996 Libero Cecchini Comune di Verona fcampagnari From tuesday to sunday from 10 am to 7 pm 4
