The Scrovegni Chapel
Wiegand Multimedia Room

How the Multimedia Room was created

While the Multimedia Room was being planned and created, some of the motifs so typical of the Scrovegni Chapel itself were repeated. The
prevailing cobalt colour echoes the deep blue of the background, which Giotto applied to the ceiling and walls as if it were a great mantle covering them. The ceiling illumination copies that of the vault of the Chapel, with its seven hundred golden stars. The deep apse evokes the sense of space of the Chapel, and the curved, velvety walls modify our perception of perspective, amplifying the virtual dimension of this itinerary, in a space which is similar to that of the Chapel, but is subtly different.
