Brief description

Architectural project is something very close to landscape, not necessarily programme- linked. Open arrangement is its logical meta- structure. It is not an abstract concept, but rather something like a cluster of inclusive and vertically interconnected rules. Not all of them must have direct formal consequences, but their consequential application surely does in the end. This inclusive logic is evident not in the formal details but in the spatial logic of the whole: in the relations between the elements of the project and around it, that is in the view through the house.

To describe the idea of the city in a single building one has to be convinced of the rhetorical beauty of given situations. One has to think further than the plot and broader than the programme, to impose the criteria of the project to the surrounding, which is to the gaze upon or through or within.
