Venue

G Livelab is designed by Marco Casagrande. The space is built around the elements typically found in a city: brick, concrete, asphalt, glass, copper, steel, leather, ceramics and plants. These elements have been repurposed and woven together in inspiring new ways with artisanal handicraft. The end-result is multi-dimensional, multi-temporal and multisensory.
