The Museo Ettore Fico is located in via Cigna 114,\u00a0in an urban area called Spina 4, which is currently at the heart of a vast\u00a0restoration plan of an abandoned industrial site. Next to the Docks Dora, where several\u00a0artists studios are based, the MEF is part of\u00a0an extremely interesting social context, very lively and strongly multi-ethnic.<\/p>\n
The building which houses the Museo Ettore Fico is part of a former\u00a0manufacturing facility\u00a0which through the years underwent significant transformations. Orthogonally set to via Cigna, the building has a\u00a0rectangular plan\u00a0whose short side is about 10 meters long, while its length measures 100 meters; its\u00a0highness is remarkable: about 17 meters. In the visual perception, its proportions are amplified by its\u00a0tunnel roofing.\u00a0Wide full-length windows\u00a0and panoramic aspects offer open views and a lively\u00a0play of light. A smaller two-storey building is directly connected to the main body. A\u00a0vast terrace\u00a0overlooking via Cigna tops the building and forms a special visual relationship with urban landscape.<\/p>\n
The design, developed by the architects Andrea Busto and Alex Cepernich, was particularly focused on studying and enhance natural and artificial lighting, as well as on modulating and managing the most convenient lighting to fully enjoy the museum.<\/em><\/p>\n With a surface of around 400 sqm, the conference rooms (provided with all the necessary thecnical equipment) are perfect to accomodate Urbanpromo Social Housing.<\/p>\n The main session and conferences will take place in the conference room (100-120 seats) while in two other rooms (30-35 seats) there will be workshops and seminars. At the mezzanine it is available another space for meting (40 seats). The domed space at the first floor, able to welcome 250 people, is a polivalent space, inspiring, in which take place temporary exhibitions and exposures.<\/p>\n The MEF is provided of 580 sqm of exhibition spaces, a panoramic terrace of 170 sqm and other spaces as the concept store and a dedicated bookshop.
