The main purpose of the project is to build a new cultural connection, a complex system in which an exhibition and thermal pavilion and a monumental fountain work together at a larger scale, rendering a both composite and impalpable space in a mixture of architecture, nature and archaeology inside Villa Adriana.
The pavilion structures itself with geometrical volumes linked by a continuous stand and by a crowning element which reacts to the sequence of built spaces that are crossing and carving it.
