The second and final day of \u201cStone is\u2026\u201d, the first International Forum dedicated to authentic natural stone, came to a conclusion today in Venice.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The morning began with Walter Mariotti<\/b>, who continued his reflection on matter and imagery, followed by Claudia Chiappino<\/b>, who focused on design language and the environmental impact of the stone industry. Peter Harrison<\/b> explored the role of stone in sustainable design, while Giovanni Santamaria<\/b> offered a glimpse into urban landscapes in transformation.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Forum concluded with the second session of \u201cMapping Stone is\u201d,<\/b> curated by Raffaella Laezza,<\/b> who summarised two days packed with ideas, visions and perspectives.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2018Stone is…\u2019 represented a significant milestone for PNA<\/b>: not only a moment of international exchange, but also concrete confirmation of the strength of a network that, since 2018, has brought together over 40 organisations with the common goal of promoting and defending the competitiveness of authentic natural stone, enhancing its tradition, excellence and versatility.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Forum is just the beginning of a new narrative on natural stone: a story that looks to the future, intertwining culture, design and sustainability.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
