CONTENTS
Introduction One of the things,I enjoy the most in architecture is the relationship between scientific and humanistic themes The Architecture of space,enclosure,structure experienced through movement in space-time achieved by means of technology accomodating a program compatible with its context . My experience so far include not only university course, but also tried to relate with the professional world and with some extra activities in all of these experiences ,I noticed how important was and in fact it is to be capable to go through many themes and issues dealing with clients,engineers and building regulations. I conclude that it is not only the purely architecture design part which fascinates me, but also the other knowledge that an architect needs to acquire in order to perform as one.
ARCHITEC
Design of the building should be harmonious between theoretical • social • functional • technical characteristics • at the same time relate to respectful context
CTURE ?
It is relevant to notice how architecture works with respect to • many scales • territory to city • spatial issues to structural details
