The enhancing of the expositive spaces of the Museo Diocesano located in the Bishop’s Palace of Cremona represented a prestigious project but also a challenge for Steel Group. The basic need arose from the necessity to find a great solution to close the inside yard between the two wings of the building. In order to give life to the project of the architect Giorgio Palù, Steel Group realized a transparent covering with double glazing selective glass, specially chosen to reduce the radiation and contain the heating of the rooms below. It was then hung to this structure, thanks to the use of steel cables, a massive spiral staircase to have access to the different floors, composed of six fights of stairs and 165 metal and frosted glass steps, one different from each other.
