Asteria & THEMAGMA
A team of technical and graphic experts for a state-of-the-art museum
The “grand debut” of a museum you have worked on is always an exciting affair. Although Asteria can boast a number of partnerships with internationally renowned museums, such as the MAUTO—National Automobile Museum in Turin and the MUSE—Trento Museum of Science, for us the opening of the MAGMA in Follonica really is a thrilling achievement.
Such a complex and innovative museum called for the involvement of the entire team at Asteria. For almost two years, we immersed ourselves in the Maremma and lived and breathed cast iron. For months we were honorary citizens of Follonica, working closely with the museum’s architects, the scientific committee, the director of works and the local city council commissioning the project.
As head of the business syndicate which, with the local firms Arazzi and IMEL, tangibly forged it, we are proud to present to the public and the media the new MAGMA—MuseodelleArti in GhisanellaMAremma.
We hope the permanent exhibition will become a rallying point for the local community and a popular attraction for Italian and international tourists.
Ourprofile
Asteria is a communication and design agency that specialises in communicating complex content to a wide-ranging target group. We design and create museum displays, exhibitions, multimedia events and presentations for national and international clients.
We provide new display solutions with the aim of making:
- educational aspects established in museums more stimulating and interactive
- scientific and historical content more involving and immersive
- art more accessible, also for children and the disabled.
Our mission
Imagine, design and display culture, in all of its interpretations - this is Asteria’s main mission.
Our experience encompasses a wide range of services for cultural communication, the popularisation of science, and teaching - museum displays, temporary exhibitions, visitor centres, exhibition stands, multimedia workstations, video installations and interactive presentations.
Our trump card is the integration of all phases of the display solution - we accompany clients from the first brainstorming session through to the opening of the museum, and even afterwards, by providing maintenance.
Depending on the requirements, Asteria can transform itself into a museum design company, a multimedia software development firm, a cinema production company, a team of electronic engineers, or a drama and set design company.
