Fabio Bascetta Fotografo Choosing a new home means facing a major life change and for an architect, designing the space, even before starting to design it, means collecting, condensing and rationalizing the new needs of the client but also, and above all, giving shape to the dreams that this change brings with it. Fabio Bascetta Fotografo So Casa A+P had to respond to a request that almost sounded like a bet: managing to contain twenty years of life spent in a larger home in a new, more intimate space without, however, giving up for...

Va Bene Cicchetti

Piotr Maciaszek, Aleksandra Hyz and Karol Pasternak from NOKE Architects talk about the design of their first cicchetti bar in Poland. A few steps into the bistro and you can tell that this project merges art and architecture. What inspired you? PM: When you go to Venice you expect to be impressed. Venice is easy to imagine based on a single postcard, but to live it is something completely unique. The biggest challenge was to bring this experience to the guests of Vabene Cicchetti. There are a lot of new places opening in this district now, so we knew it had to be something truly one of its kind. We were inspired by pictures of Venetian eateries which stay open during periods of high tide (Italian: aqua alta) and are architecturally adap... More

Art and Music high school in Aosta, Italy

The project for the new LICAM is based on the idea of a measured building, with simple volumes and characterized by a facade that plays on the rhythm and proportions of architectural elements.

SET Architects The shell highlights an alternation of solids and voids where the concrete's materiality contrasts with the glass's transparency and lightness. From the point of view of the materials, the facade is made up of prefabricated elements in brick-coloured concrete like the architecture of the Roman era located near the site, particularly the "Tour Du Pailleron...
