Ironic Factory: ANDREA OLIVA AT REGGIO EMILIA !

With a conservation and innovation mixed process, the italian architect Andrea Oliva returns a new dignity to an old foundry, looking to it like a new place, but also as a strong testimony of the industrial history of the territory.

Today this building, called "Capannone (Shed)19", has become a new operative space for offices, meetings, conferences.

Skyscraper-concept: Renzo Piano at MIAMI !

My fellow citizen Renzo Piano signed a new skyscraper-concept in North Shore park, Miami.

The skyscraper appears to be levitating above the trees: the dream of LC about the Modern Way of Life.

My fellow citizen Renzo Piano signed a new skyscraper in Soho, New York.

In the trace of the great archietcts of Rationalism, like Philip Johnson.
