Hypnerotomachia Poliphili is a cultural project developed in collaboration with composer Andrea Gabrielli, based on an unfinished conceptual music album inspired by the Renaissance novel of the same name (1499).

The project translates this musical narrative into a series of printed pieces, exploring design as a physical and interactive experience. The publication is structured as a set of eight booklets, where the reader engages with the object through different formats, materials and sequences.

Rooted in references from Renaissance literature and progressive music, the project aims to reinterpret the classical book as a contemporary, tangible artifact, combining narrative, materiality and visual experimentation.
