“Negli anni dell’università lo studente si forma confrontandosi con il livello massimo della cultura architettonica. Negli anni successivi il giovane architetto è atteso invece dal livello massimo delle difficoltà professionali. Questo libro si interroga proprio sul delicato passaggio dalla formazione alla professione. Quali sono gli strumenti con cui affrontare gli scenari del lavoro progettuale odierno? Quali le strategie organizzative per diventare a tutti gli effetti architetti? E quali le scommesse culturali per non diventare “solo” dei professionisti? 20 tra i nuovi studi europei più attivi e innovativi svelano le aspettative e gli ostacoli, gli smacchi e i successi con cui si cimenta oggi la complessa arte dell’architettura.” Bruno Pedretti

Three years ago, after a working period, we began to feel a certain restlessness because of the way architecture is communicated to the widespread audience in Italy, our homeland. We’ve thought architecture in itself has a sort of lack in “being communicated” and also, maybe, in “communicating”, and nothing about this topic was normally taught in architecture universities even. If architecture is rejected by the common people, it means architecture misses opportunities to act in the reality at every level, that’s its obvious aim. Actually architecture has ever been a sociopolitical device and communication a sociopolitical need to fulfill. That’s why we think communication-science can be a maneuvering space for architecture. In our opinion, communication could help us to manage all the micropolitics that usually misleads architecture and the city, because it treats them as concrete materials to process. At that time, we were attending Accademia di Architettura in Mendrisio (CH) but we decided to engage in extensive communication: we started to collaborate with the Italian Switzerland’s main daily newspaper and we founded Universo (www.luniverso.com) with students from different faculties, mainly communication-science and economy. In fact Universo has been a publishing enterprise that has let independent and crossover thinking from different kind of faculties to be expressed. At the same time we set up AsMA (www.as-ma.net), an independent association for research in architecture strictly composed by architecture students: in October 2004, while profiting from Universo experience, with this association we started “Simply Architects”, a research project about the profession of architecture and about the way job organization and communication deal with their own architecture products. With “Simply Architects” we tried to establish a “concrete” research that could be responsible to its own economical conditions and aware of those productive mechanism of architectural practice that are normally hidden.
