Description

The reconstruction of the “Gran Teatro La Fenice” in Venice stands out not only for the grandeur of the intervention but also for the construction characteristic: starting from the masonry ruins, witness of the 1996 fire that destroyed the previous structure, the construction of the current complex combined the recovery of the existing structure with reconstructive interventions in reinforced concrete, steel and wood in a combination of recovery of the old and creation of the new perfectly integrated with each other.
