The City, The Building, the Room
Studio Introduction
VENICE: The exploration of urban space commences with proposals for interventions in the campi of Venice. The structures are required to contain a café counter, advertising for political and commercial use, an atm, a public lavatory and an electronic information point, and to reconfigure the space in which they stand.
VICENZA: In the 500th anniversary of his birth, proposals are sought to complement Andrea Palladio’s Basilica (1546) in the Piazza dei Signori in Vicenza. Students are required to provide a critical response to adjoin this urban masterpiece in the form of a new building, in the context of a clearly defined major civic space.
VERONA: Finally you are invited to design a room from which fair Verona can be surveyed. Located at an upper level, the room is expected to contain all that is necessary to appreciate the view across the city.
