 ed tour\nTuesday 23 February 2026\, 5.30-6.15pm\nFollowed by an architectu
 re lecture at 6.30 pm\, organized by EPFL Architecure\n\nFrom design to co
 nstruction\, where does the true ingenuity of building construction lie? 
 The Extraction of Value shifts the focus of architectural knowledge towar
 ds the tools that measure\, mark out and align a building during its const
 ruction. Over 300 historical instruments\, collected over several decades 
 and from various regions of the world by the architect Paolo Tombesi\, for
 m the core of this exhibition. Spirit levels\, gauges\, templates\, gradua
 ted rulers and plumb lines are presented as veritable repositories of tech
 nical knowledge\, with each tool symbolising choices relating to precision
 \, distribution and the nature of the work.\n\nTo showcase this collection
 \, Archizoom has joined forces with USM\, whose furniture – based on a r
 igorous grid system\, precise assembly and flawless regularity – provide
 s the ideal setting for an exhibition dedicated to the sense of measuremen
 t.\n\nAn exhibition organised in collaboration with Prof. Paolo Tombesi an
