Held annually at Veronafiere, in Verona, Italy, MARMOMACC, the International Exhibition of Stone, Design and Technology, is the global showcase of stone materials and machinery.  In 2008, more than 1,530 exhibitors from 54 countries attracted over 63,000 trade visitors – including 27,000 foreign visitors from 120 countries.  MARMOMACC is the ideal place to see the latest stone-related machinery and technologies, to directly source stone for commercial projects, and to view the full spectrum of stone materials available for residential applications.

Each year, the show features a number of architectural exhibits and conferences devoted to designing with dimensional stone.  The images appearing on this page are related to Marmomacc Meets Design, an initiative that pairs an architect or designer with a stone company to develop together a stone prototype reflecting a specific theme.  The goal of the project is to stimulate innovative uses and applications of marble and other natural stone materials.
