Conclusions

The purpose of the thesis and of the preliminary geometric studies carried out on the city and on the various situations was to find a syntax that could potentially be used in different locations of the city. The chosen configuration is an example of the architectural methodology in which a series of spaces developed horizontally is preferred to a singular building, to recapture the human dimension and make the communities participate in a place in which to stay, live, create, experience.

Like in a memory theater each of the parts occupies a precise space that speaks for itself, has its own cosmogenicity that is evoked in its own shapes, but at the same time, as part of a totality which is more than the sum of the parts, it could not be separated from its cosmological position.

During the field trip we were able to witness how strong the communitarian dimension of sharing, communicating and narrating is. This, lead many people to occupy the city in the most disparate and often non predictable meeting places. I feel like India is less linked than the western world to the private dimension of the home.

With this in mind, and, moreover, because of the tragic reality that India is currently experiencing, that keeps people apart and damages an already precarious system, I thought that it could be a good general approach to offer managed meeting places to the local communities, with rules, times and distances to be respected.

In my thesis, this concrete idea has its roots on an architectural "dream" of a place of possible timeless suggestions, a cosmology of invention, a Pantheon without gods.
