Adam Cinquanta contributed to the restauration project by intricately designing two windows, a rose window, and a mosaic.
One of these windows represents Mary carrying Jesus, wearing her red dress, is mirroring the medieval painting of her wearing the same red dress, carrying Christ.
The second window depicts Saint Pancras, the patron saint of children, jobs, and health.

After almost a decade of drafts and reflections, here is finally ready the new rose window for the facade of the church Sanctae Mariae ad Nives.
The rosette will consist of a large artistic glass bound by lead.
The various glass pieces will be engraved and hand-painted with the ancient medieval technique of "grisaille" and firing.
The project was presented on 02 August 2014 on the occasion of the main celebration in Santa Maria in Prato at the Santa Maria della Neve church.
A first phase of restyling work on the external rose window ended on 05.13.15.
The new rose window was installed on 08.01.15, exactly one year after its presentation.
