In the middle of the Dolomites on a shallow slope stands a museum dedicated to the Falcader artist Augusto Murer (1922–1985). At the beginning of the 1970s, architect Giuseppe Davanzo erected a Brutalist museum building near Murer’s former studio, where his works—from sculptures to drawings to oil paintings—are presented on three floors. Davanzo used reinforced concrete to create a building consisting of volumes that are partly floating and partly adhering to the ground, complemented by two square and one round tower with sloped roofs. A long, slender chimney in organic shape rises from the center of the structure. Characteristic for the design is the staging of the formwork-rough exposed concrete walls with strong groove pattern and the red metal features that cover the roof surfaces or set vertical color accents in the form of downpipes. A pergola-like red steel beam structure on the south side picks up this design element in the garden area.

Inside the building, the variety of shapes of the construction visible from the outside is reflected. Daylight enters the exhibition rooms from above and from the side through skylights in the roof as well as a recurring vertical pattern of holes in the façade.
