The Congress Venue

The Roman neighbourhood of EUR contains the most iconic examples of Rationalism, an architectural current which reached its height in the 1920s-1930s. Since its establishment, EUR has accommodated the most significant events in Rome and it should be no surprise that the visionary architectural complex designed by Massimiliano Fuksas has risen in this very district.

 

La Nuvola’s design concept is defined by three elements: the “Theca”, the “Cloud” and the “Blade” of the hotel. The Theca is a steel and glass display-case (70 x 40 x 175 metres) characterized by a rigorous geometrical shape where the fibreglass structure of the Cloud floats with its translucent curves, like an enormous, weightless sculpture.

 

The Blade is an impressive jet-black prism which runs along the south side of the Theca and contains a 4-star hotel, the logistical counterpart for the events and conventions hosted in the Cloud.

 

La Nuvola is one of the most iconic buildings in the entire city of Rome.

​

This visionary building by Massimiliano Fuksas was inaugurated on the 29 October 2016 and since then it has been acknowledged worldwide as a fine example of contemporary aesthetics, characterized by eco-friendly materials and innovative technological solutions.
