Stories that still intertwine in today’s Montelupo, where art and design meet on the path to creative impetus to crafting and proposal of new models.

ABOUT A VASE
MONTELUPO FIORENTINO
Temporary Exhibition
The temporary exhibition About a Vase was set up in several venues of the historical city center of Montelupo Fiorentino (Florence, Italy). The exhibition design was made up of simple panels (OSB panels wrapped in printed paper) that discretely accompanied the works of art.
WUNDERKAMMER -
THE CHAMBER OF WONDERS
OF MONTELUPO
Temporary Pavilion
A red path guided the visitors through the contemporary ceramic production of Montelupo. The temporary pavilion interpreted the idea of collecting and presents ceramic products as works of art. Like modern chambers of Renaissance collectors, the ceramics of Montelupo were kept inside three containers. These become modern chambers of wonders and represented the idea of travelling.
