Under the Italian title ''Tradizione, Costruzione'' (Italian for ''Tradition, Construction''), set designer Gemma Tickle and photographer Aaron Tilley, both based in London, joined forces to create five different settings made of five different types of pasta, paying homage to Italian architecture. The final result is a photo series which depicts the brittle beauty of structural and decorative architectural elements. A unique curtain is created through hundreds of hanging black-sepia spaghetti, a Roman column is formed by cylindrical candele pasta, a tiled roof is made of wide-flat lasagna, a bunch of long-thin spaghetti shape a staircase and dozens of small rigatoni form a trackless herringbone-shaped floor.
