Architecture beyond genders and generations
I think I should be allowed to feel a little nostalgic, although I apologize and admit to being somewhat embarrassed about it. For one thing, I never like having to write autobiographically, and yet I have to accept the contradiction of looking back
Industrial reuse
There is an expression definition that has become familiar in our everyday language, “industrial archeology”, which refers literally to the study of ancient structures originally used as factories. The subject of antiquity and the study to which the term “archeology” refers etymologically does not appear always
Temporary architecture, freedom architecture
I do not remember exactly what year was it, yet I remember that during one of our informal talks, Pierluigi Nicolin, long standing executive editor of the renowned Lotus International magazine, brought my attention to what, in his opinion, was the most important architectural
If architecture is art and is viewed and thus experienced, as such, then when is it designed as the place in which art itself resides, whether a museum or an art gallery, the delicate problem arises of the relationship between container and content, between being and trespassing. On the

At this point, it seems quite obvious that we can no longer tolerate any question or misinformation about the environmental issue, and it is equally clear that the soil is one of our few non-reproducible resources. We can no longer doubt that there is a real need, on the
Architecture, as a discipline and as completed work, is constantly forced to deal with the construction technology, an essential tool for the production of the habitable spaces the architect imagines so perfectly in thought. Sometimes, technical processes and new materials have even been able to liberate that imagination or
Reflecting on the relationship between water and architecture means opening scenarios and sectors of investigation so vast and detailed as to discourage any sector of research that is not necessarily circumscribed and narrow. Effectively, the disciplines connected with this pairing range from urban studies – bearing in mind that the
The most sensitive architects of the eastern world, especially in many of the finest examples we see in China, have begun to contrast the opulent western vision with a more domestic and introspective dimension of living. Of course, it’s always a mistake to generalize, and indeed, similar attitudes
When I try to explain in a readily understandable way what I mean by the difference between a unilateral gesture and the value of an architectural project or design, I resort to a simple but, I think, effective parallel. A single column stands for nothing other than itself, and
