The restoration of the Church of San Silvestro in Crevalcore, an architectural gem in the province of Bologna, represents an extraordinary example of how Mipa terrazzo can be used to preserve and enhance Italian historical heritage.
The church, built in the 18th century, suffered significant damage during the 2012 earthquake, making a restoration intervention necessary to respect its history and original architecture. From the very beginning of the restoration project, the choice of Mipa terrazzo was fundamental to ensure a result that combined durability and aesthetic beauty while fully respecting the church’s original appearance.
The floors of the Church of San Silvestro were restored using Mipa terrazzo, specifically the Tinte Unite collection which stands out for its versatility and quality. The tiles from this collection, available in various sizes and colours, were carefully chosen to recreate the original atmosphere of the building.
Thanks to the variety of formats and colours, unique custom-made patterns were created that perfectly integrate with the existing architecture, preserving the aesthetic and cultural integrity of the place.
This approach was fundamental in the restoration project of the Church of Crevalcore, where the Tinte Unite collection helped create a perfect balance between old and new, enhancing the historical aspect of the church without compromising its authenticity.
The restoration of the Church of San Silvestro in Crevalcore demonstrates how Mipa Terrazzo can make a difference not only in residential projects but also in the conservation of historical heritage.
Thanks to the quality of the materials and Mipa’s innovative approach, the church has been restored to its original beauty, ready to be admired and experienced by future generations.
