Located within Palazzo Civico in Turin, the project transforms the historic Ex Curia Maxima courtyard into a civil wedding hall connected to the adjacent Sala Juvarra. The intervention establishes a ceremonial spatial sequence that restores the symbolic dignity traditionally associated with religious marriage rites within a civic setting.

​

The layout is organised to recreate the processional experience of entering a ceremonial space, allowing couples to cross the hall through a central axis before reaching the place of the ceremony. This spatial gesture establishes a dialogue with the scale and historic character of the adjacent baroque hall designed by Filippo Juvarra.

​

The restoration reinstates traditional materials and craftsmanship. Original floor patterns were reconstructed, while walls are finished in natural stucco. Custom-made furnishings, large mirrors, gilded curtains and leather seating were designed in proportion to the monumental volume of the hall. Complementary spaces, including a small auditorium and reception areas, adopt the same restrained palette of natural materials such as travertine, wood and leather.
