My experience design approach can be described as a symbolic contribution to architecture, to its acoustic self-understanding and its site specific human interaction awareness:
-> in order to inform architecture and assist it in its imaginary visions, its material planning assumptions and priorities;
-> therefore stimulating architecture to re-consider itself as a dynamic and permutable process, expressive and multiple-referenced, diachronically and synchronically consistent, in order to respond to the strong demand for transformable contexts, continuosly re-readable, “sensitive and responsive” to the transformations of inhabitants and wider community’s needs.
The balance between material construction and dynamic expression, between art and local functionality, materiality and immateriality is a matter of planning and design ecology.
