Abstract

The report introduces the design proposal for the Thermal Baths in Carrara Marble Quarries, Italy. For centuries the site, disturbed by the human intervention, was a source of the marble material, used all over the world. Nowadays quarries are associated mostly with the industry. Our paper will consider what changes can be implemented in the location. How the area can be renowned and how it will contribute to the place with the new function. One of our main objectives will be designing the resort that will improve the purpose of the place and the near city. All the interventions will be made with the care for the surroundings and connected to the context. Along the report, we will follow the Integrated Design Process in favour of designing a fully holistic architecture.
