人们可以在城市中心广场看到新建的这座圣玛利亚教堂，它就在历史悠久的城市中心周边。简单的北向双半圆形平面限定了单一的内部空间，纵向天窗将两侧通道分隔开。建筑的目的是突显教堂的半圆形尖顶体量，同时消隐通道空间。教堂外部使用陶土砖，内部则使用白色灰泥涂料。沿着纵向天窗，Sandro Chia艺术家的一系列版画作品勾勒出第三条通道。

One can make out the new construction from the central square of the city, just beyond the historic centre. The simple north-facing bi-apsidal plant defines a single internal space crossed by a longitudinal skylight that separates the two aisles. The project aims to highlight the presence of the apsidal bodies and, meanwhile, to make the aisles disappear. The exterior cladding is in terracotta bricks while the interior is in white stucco. Along the longitudinal skylight, a series of engravings by the artist Sandro Chia virtually outlines a third aisle.
