destinati alle zone di servizio: cabine di traduzio-

sto, nella parte frontale della sala, è collocato il
palco per i relatori posizionato sopra una pedana
ancora rivestita in lastre di Pietra Basaltina in ce-
ramica tecnica. L’ambiente è infatti definito nella
sua interezza dalla declinazione di un unico ma-
teriale nelle sue diverse tecniche di applicazione
e finitura superficiale: la Pietra Basaltina della
collezione New Stone di GranitiFiandre. Tutte
le pareti della sala risultano conseguentemente
rivestite con lastre sottili dal caratteristico colo-
re grigio scuro in modo da rendere l’atmosfera
opportunamente soffusa e facilmente oscurabile.
Sia per le pareti che per il pavimento sono state
scelte lastre tagliate in diversi formati con finitura
fiammata, mentre la zona centrale è identificata
da una superficie semi levigata che si proten-
de sulla pedana dei relatori fino alla retrostan-
te parete di separazione con le zone retropalco.
L’intarsio delle Lastre Luminose della collezione
Geologica nella parte centrale del pavimento, in
corrispondenza delle sedute, crea un sofisticato
effetto di galleggiamento di ogni singolo posto.
Per la realizzazione di questa sorta di “tappeto lu-
minescente” è stato impiegato il taglio ad idroget-
to delle singole lastre, in modo da ridurre qual-

lighting units in plaster created by Martini have
been embedded precisely above each chair.
The vertical surfaces feature a new and unusual
fastening system, that is normally used for the
installation of ventilated walls. The interspace
between the outer wall and the basalt stone tiles,
assembled mechanically without glues or concre-
te, not only offers outstanding acoustic and ther-
mal insulation of the interior, but has also made
it possible to sculpt the wall surface and create a
recessed strip along the perimeter. This long cut
