Description

To recognize our past, to explore our memory, to take part in tradition—but actively, by feeding the design substance in what is essential, not merely superficial. The Gordian knot lies in being able to establish genealogies between architecture projects, to seek cross-references between history and contemporaneity, to explain the present since the past and the past from the present.
