The university of tor vergata is the second state university in the capital, founded in 1982 and attended by an average of about 40,000 students; it is situated in the large park between the grande raccordo anulare (great ring road) and the castelli romani (castles of rome) and currently houses six faculties: economics, law, engineering, literature and philosophy, medicine and surgery and the mathematical, physical and natural sciences.

The building, formed by a series of two blocks connected with the existing multifunctional block, holds three floors of “loft” style lecture rooms and a fourth used for the Dean’s office and conference rooms.

The furnishing project was conceived unitarily, even in the careful consideration of specific functional characteristics.
The necessary differentiation between areas dedicated to study and public areas was consistently achieved using the finest materials for finishes. Lecture rooms were furnished with Omnia desks, computer rooms with the Thesi system, the various laboratories and study rooms with smart and Woody seats designs, and finally, for
the teaching staff, the Zero7 line of semi-executive chairs. Special attention was paid to the dean’s office, with a finer appearance characterised by the Amadeus line both for the desk and visitor chairs as well as the meeting room; the room furnishings were completed by a Naxos sofa and chair. Likewise, the various waiting areas also included naxos sofas and chairs as well as those outside the three conference rooms. These were furnished with Eidos anti-panic writing tablets arranged in straight or curved rows.
