Torino Esposizioni, Convention center and national heritage site in Turin, Italy
The exhibition halls feature cylindrical barrel vaults, reinforced concrete structures, and innovative architectural elements designed by Pier Luigi Nervi and Ettore Sottsass.
The construction of Torino Esposizioni commenced in 1938, with its official inauguration taking place in 1939 as a venue for Italy's annual automobile exhibitions.
The complex represents a significant example of modern Italian architecture, incorporating ferrocemento construction techniques that influenced building practices worldwide.
