Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Following the first volume published in 2009, this second volume focuses on architectural and artistic projects since the mid-2000s. While the initial volume highlighted architectural and urbanistic work, this one features 25 new architectural projects and explores the relationship between architecture and art. The concept of "folding" emerges as a key theme, applicable to design objects, public art installations, and architecture. This volume showcases the diverse architectural typologies that Barrier engages with, including residential buildings, collective housing, public facilities, and functional structures like supermarkets and engineering buildings. Barrier approaches each project with innovative solutions, avoiding repetition and adhering to his ideal "lexicon of constants." His work reflects a continuous pursuit of urban coherence across various interventions in city centers, derelict industrial areas, and diffuse periurban spaces. He explores contemporary garden cities, compact assemblies, and collages, aiming to revitalize forgotten urban situations. Additionally, he seeks to create urban signs and networks while preserving the city's existing layers. The interplay between art, design, and architecture is central to his method, fostering a creative coherence that connects different disciplines across various scales.
