The exhibition, with the fundamental contribution of Gabriella Palpacelli, is about the development of the architect’s design activities, from the beginnings to the latest projects. Many original models, restored for the occasion, are exhibited.
The intent is to bring to the attention of the general public one of the most important figures of the Italian scene of the second half of 1900, too often ignored by the public and critics, but strongly appreciated by a clear design expert:

Carlo Scarpa, that talking about the Palpacelli’s piezometers said: these are the cathedrals of the future.
