Serving as a showroom, the building resonates with the quarry it is located in – and with the idea of a forum – through the monumentality expressed by its wrinkled and veined stone cladding. Two volumes make up the complex. The more monumental construction gives access to the quarry. The other one is the visitor center, conceived as a massive stone in which courtyards and passages have been dug.
