EVOLUTIO is the first digitally native museum showcasing the examples of large infrastructure built by Webuild and the companies that have been incorporated into the Group over the course of its 120 years. A snapshot of the many gigantic constructions and infrastructures created by people, for people: all forming a new educational narrative that delves into the evolution of building techniques and the benefits that this infrastructure has to offer to people.
The story of Webuild’s history is accompanied by previously unreleased accounts, as well as original photos and films selected from the Group’s extensive multimedia archive, including valuable black-and-white material from leading experts in industrial photography, such as Gugliemo Chiolini, and famous directors such as Ermanno Olmi.
EVOLUTIO showcases hundreds of the more than 3,700 major infrastructure projects: the dams in Northern Italy in the early 20th century; the Kariba Dam in Zimbabwe; the hydroelectric plants in Ethiopia; the preservation of the Abu Simbel Temples in Egypt; the expansion of the Panama Canal; the metro networks in Paris, Copenhagen, Rome, Thessaloniki, Milan, Ryadh and Doha that are reshaping the concept of the sustainable mobility; the Autostrada del Sole motorway and the high-speed railway system that have greatly facilitated economic and social integration between Northern and Southern Italy; the Stavros Niarchos Cultural Centre in Athens; the New Genoa San Giorgio Bridge, and many more besides.
