The room where Italy keeps its drawings. Everything here is example material — the studios and workshops publish their own pages, eventually.

The Mole Antonelliana in Turin at night.

Architecture

Turin · Piedmont

The Mole began in 1863 as a synagogue and ended up as the symbol of the city. It now holds the National Cinema Museum, which is a very Italian way of treating a building: use it, don't embalm it.

The ancient Greek theatre of Taormina, Sicily.

Art

Taormina · Sicily

Greeks built theatres on Sicilian headlands with Etna as the backdrop, centuries before Italy existed. This one still stages performances — the oldest rooms in the country are not museums.

The glass-roofed aisle of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan.

Design & Fashion

Milan · Lombardy

Iron and glass over a pedestrian street: the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II opened in 1877, and Milan has been designing things to walk past ever since — furniture, lamps, and clothes that end up in the same galleries.

Crafts

Wherever there is clay, glass or marble

Murano blows glass, Carrara cuts marble, and small towns across the south still throw pots. These are the businesses the network is meant to carry: one workshop, one page, one address.
