Abstract (in inglese) - Landscape seen as a “place of the mind” is a way of conceiving space as a combination of relationships and interactions which can never be firmly defined, never univocally grasped. A perceptive and cultural construction of reality, in a continuous oscillation between aesthetics and science, landscape reflects the world’s uni-duality, in accord with flexible, mobile, open and interrogative thought. This seeks pregnant relationships in a totality which is not broken up into individual parts, inside of which the observer and the actual act of observation play vital and integral roles. The architectural experiments proposed as “(land)scapes-like” seem to emphasise this endless aperture, this new adherence to what reality is becoming. In this way, they represent a ‘metaphor of landscape’ able to bring out, through the continuous fluctuation of their horizons, broad limits for drifting and intersecting borders. Dynamism predominates over immobility, metamorphosis over stability, dialogue with the customer and the environment prevails over self-reflection, revealing a world of relationships in which everything is connected beyond each and every set configuration.

Abstract

Abstract (in inglese) - Landscape seen as a “place of the mind” is a way of conceiving space as a combination of relationships and interactions which can never be firmly defined, never univocally grasped. A perceptive and cultural construction of reality, in a continuous oscillation between aesthetics and science, landscape reflects the world’s uni-duality, in accord with flexible, mobile, open and interrogative thought. This seeks pregnant relationships in a totality which is not broken up into individual parts, inside of which the observer and the actual act of observation play vital and integral roles. The architectural experiments proposed as “(land)scapes-like” seem to emphasise this endless aperture, this new adherence to what reality is becoming. In this way, they represent a ‘metaphor of landscape’ able to bring out, through the continuous fluctuation of their horizons, broad limits for drifting and intersecting borders. Dynamism predominates over immobility, metamorphosis over stability, dialogue with the customer and the environment prevails over self-reflection, revealing a world of relationships in which everything is connected beyond each and every set configuration.
