Archea Associati / Marco Casamonti, Florence
Architecture is rarely created in isolation. The exhibition *Tribute. Architecture as a Form of Dialogue by the Florentine firm Archea Associati takes this as its starting point: Eleven international projects—including the Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery nestled in the Tuscan hills, the Air Albania Stadium in Tirana, and the spectacular Kiss Bridge in Phú Quốc, Vietnam—are presented not from the perspective of the architectural firm, but from that of the client.

Curated by Luca Molinari Studio, the exhibition at Aedes places them at the center—as equal partners in the design process who articulate requirements, help shape decisions, and contribute to the projects’ content.
On display are immersive film interviews with clients from Europe and Asia, as well as models that allow visitors to experience the “narrated” projects spatially.
The exhibition combines two levels of presentation: a film installation featuring video interviews recorded in Europe and Asia and produced with the support of Pietro Savorelli e Associati, as well as models of the featured projects positioned centrally in the space. Both elements are directly related to one another: the models anchor the film narratives in the built object and enable diverse, complementary approaches to the design process.
