Learning Objectives

ARCHITETTURA DEGLI INTERNI
"The projects had to develop according to a process going from the inside out, the floor and the ceiling (wooden floor and coffered ceiling) were to be solved first, the façade was later. The orderly distribution of the parts and the logical arrangement of the furniture were given the utmost importance. In this way I taught my students to think in three dimensions, to think about the cube. There are few architects who today know how to do it. Today it seems that the architect's preparation is completed when he learned to think on the plan. " (Adolf Loos, My School of Architecture)
COMPOSIZIONE ARCHITETTONICA

This discipline is conceived as an inseparable part and fundamental moment of architectural project. The course would work on the creation of a projetcing research path that question the preconceptions regarding the interior design theme. A theme often seen as creation of a furniture in existing spaces. Instead we would verify how, departing from an "interior", could be possible to mesure end rule the world (within a founding process "from inside to outside" belonging to the best architetcural culture).
