Renaissance Room

The Renaissance Room is, first and foremost, a passageway that connects two essential spaces in the building: the Cybermusic and the West Foyer.
The name of the room comes from the tiles that line its walls, featuring a pattern created by two parallelograms and a square, in blue, which is green and white. The inspiration likely came, on the one hand, from the facades of the city itself, which in the 19th century adopted similar patterns. In addition, the optical illusion created by the mosaic of tiles evokes the European Renaissance, a period of cultural, artistic, and scientific explosion when the use of perspective in painting was truly developed. There is also a possible reference to Op Art, an artistic movement in the 1960s that worked with natural effects of cavalier and isometric perspective to create optical illusions, sensations of volume, and optical vibrations so strong they suggested movement.
