The enhancement project for San Francesco aims to integrate the future museum into a network of museum sites across the city, creating a cultural landscape that encompasses various fields of interest. The establishment of the museum hub is intended to stimulate the revitalization of the entire medieval complex, allowing the development of visitor-oriented services such as a bookshop, caf\u00e9, conference hall, and an art-history library.<\/span>

The guiding principle behind the architectural design was the preservation of the building\u2019s historical features, acknowledging that the entire complex\u2014especially during the 19th century\u2014underwent substantial transformations that rendered the original architectural and formal characteristics of the church almost unrecognizable. The restoration project, therefore, seeks to rediscover some of the building\u2019s original traits without erasing the historical stratifications of the structure, while adding new elements, completely different in nature yet limited in volumetric impact, that serve to reconnect and restore the overall functionality of the complex, which is to be transformed into the City Museum.<\/span><\/p>\n

From a general layout perspective, the exhibition design interprets the guiding principle of the visitor path, conceived as a river, track, or road, within the exhibit architecture. A central axis composed of square modules is articulated by tables, panels, seating, and supports for the artefacts; along the perimeter walls, additional display elements and interactive multimedia projections unfold.<\/span><\/p>\n

The museum exhibition project is based on great flexibility and modularity, conceived as a dynamic system with few fixed installations and many adaptable spaces, thus allowing continuous reconfiguration of the rooms according to new needs or content.<\/span><\/p>\n

The display’s modular, easily combined supports enable the arrangement of objects to be modified, the integration of new acquisitions, and the management of loans, temporary exhibitions, or restored materials.<\/span><\/p>\n
