SpazioFMG: natural space for architecture

The gallery at Via Bergognone 27 in Milan restyles its image, with active sustainability as its theme.
SpazioFMG for architecture

The project for the renovation of SPAZIOFMG FOR ARCHITECTURE at via Bergognone 27, Milan, is getting underway, with work scheduled to start during the Christmas period.

After opening in 2007 and offering events through which, thanks to the support of FMG Fabbrica Marmi e Graniti and the scientific curatorship of Luca Molinari and his assistants, SpazioFMG became an established location for "the free exhibition and communication of architecture" in Milan, the new project by the designer Simone Cagnazzo represents an evolution of the original concept:
"I decided to design a space that would combine the expressive strength of a gallery with the discrete vibrancy of an atelier, a place allowing physical work and encounters with ideas and materials, always surrounded by the representations of the works of key creative players on the current architecture and design scene, carefully displayed within the Spazio in the sequences conceived for them by Luca Molinari, one of the most important, stimulating critics at the international level".

The new SpazioFMG will place Iris's ceramic creations alongside the manufactured natural stones of FMG as materials suggested for design, with an array comprising slabs suitable for both large architectural structures and interior design schemes.
It will be a light-filled environment, clad with ACTIVE%trade; anti-pollutant, anti-bacterial slabs, making it both actively sustainable and culturally active. The responsibility for managing the gallery-atelier has been assigned to the architect David Poletti, a personality who clearly represents a cultural, design-oriented approach towards the world of architecture and its players.
