ARENGARIO - MUSEUM OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY

The surface available was limited and not ideal for an exhibition space. Anyway, the project allowed to enhance and re-organize the original space by emptying the loggia and the "high body" and by moving the area for the small exhibitions and concentrating the areas to be visited.
