The historic center, a pedestrian street, a building of 700 stones, courtyard, houses of Railing ... This is "Casa DOVA".
Turns, while maintaining the architectural structure, comes alive as the newest. Characterized in a mixture of emotions.
An austere corridor turns accompanying the entry in "Casa Dova" a path "sensory", built on the basis of provocation of latent impressions, which exist in all of us. Stirring up, in a setting almost sterile, muffled, disturbing, absolutely took irregular shapes, a whirlwind of memories, thoughts, gestures, perhaps forgotten but always present. Playing, taking almost around the individual, with the light that enlightens, but not as points of reference. Molding, with innovative materials, technologically perfect and perfectly integrated, images of "old" city and beautiful.
The stairs are returning to their natural beauty. Highlighting the original stone steps. Floors that come to life in warm colors of oxidized bronze, the walls healed that regained their ancient splendor with special effects working now disappeared. Vaults of the past that found the light. New ceilings that seem to spring from nothing remained suspended in the void of the stairs, wrapped in that tiny mystery of embarrassment curves modeled and shaped beam of light as if to support desired, making the scenery even more spectacular. Small elements of the now hidden by too many interventions without logic, emerge proud. Bringing with them extraordinary signs that architecture "Masters" have passed and that now find themselves, putting them into prominence, their youth. Combining the original splendor with the knowledge, technique and the utopia of the emotions, that was once wonderful dexterity, in a surprising setting of modernity "old" and unique.
