AsThought architecture from concept to built form Our main goal is to describe the design process, the architectural solutions and the detailing choices of a built work in a chronological order. The dream – that is also the ambition – is to tune at the best the structure of this on-line manual and to spread around its template in order to amplify the power of collecting and publishing in a such huge way that in a few years we could arrive at the largest open source and most browsed utility for architectural students not only in Europe.

Project description


Nel tessuto storico del lungolago lavenese, il rudere di una vecchia casa scoperchiata, nel tempo trasformatasi in giardino murato e annesso al giardino di una villa vicina, è oggetto di una convenzione tra Comune e proprietĂ : il Comune chiede di limarne una porzione per migliorare l’immissione delle auto sulla strada provinciale, in cambio concede alla proprietĂ di realizzare tre posti auto coperti. Il progetto precedente prevedeva l’eliminazione del giardino murato; il nostro invece ricava i posti auto nel terrapieno sottostante ad esso, aprendo nel muro di cinta ricostruito una finestra che infila la vista del lago, attraverso uno stretto vicolo.

office presentation


Studio Albori is a small architecture atelier located in Milano, Italy, that has been operating since 1993. Emanuele Almagione, Giacomo Borella and Francesca Riva propose a different approach on contemporary architecture. The projects are carefully drawn with the site and the landscape, they are detailed, up to date works in wich environmental concerns are latent. In this studio the architecture practice is regarded as a craft rather than a tool of building’s mass production, and the designing process does not revolve around vague formal concepts or on an attempt to hide or deny the building’s earthly conditions, but around practical factors, in a free spirited, experimental and empiric manner, where reality is perceived as an opportunity rather than a limitation. Their work is a demonstration of nature’s acceptance not only as the architectonic place where buildings are constructed, but as the a condition under wich architecture is produced, alongside, of course, it’s programme, plasticism and symbolism Attentive to the ways of anonymous and regional architecture, the studio persuits a sustainable and meaningfull way of making the archiecture of today.


book editor presentation

I’m Ângela Charters Morais a portuguese architecture student, born in 1991. Has a teenager I went from the small town of Rio Maior to Santarém to study arts for three years, before enrolling in Faculdade de Arquitectura de Lisboa. In Lisbon I had the opportunity to expand my interests and learn with the city. My passions reside not only in architecture as a practice but in all philosophycal, cultural, symbolic and artistic aspects of it and of the life as a human being. Whenever there is some spare time I spend it contemplating the city, visiting, drawing and photographing architecture, watching films at Cinemateca de Lisbon, taking lazy afternoon naps at Gulbenkian garden, reading philosophy and poetry, going to concerts, playing piano, having long talks in cofeeshops with friends and emptying wine bottles at dinner with friends. I’m currently experiencing living in Milano as an ERASMUS student, I’ve been throught a handfull of new experiences in this city, and it’s fair to say that meeting Studio Albori and getting to know their work, is among the best of them, therefore, I’m thankfull to the Asthought project and to Studio Albori’s collaboration.
