The Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, also known as the Colosseo Quadrato, is a monumental building dating back to the 1930s. It is located in the EUR area and is now home to the Fendi fashion house. The restoration project, designed by the famous architect Paolo Marconi, involved cleaning the facades with a biocide treatment, applying an anti-smog protective coating, fixing the travertine slabs and performing plastering work with smoothing mortars.
