The History of Architecture in a diagram: upper right drawing - from wood and masonry dwelling to corbusier to metabolist. two lower drawings could be seen as elaboration of the metabolist's diagram; the spatiology elements as an urban composition.
Upper left is the "fish" a sketch traced over a south street seaport project. Vittorio's attempt to get the student to "lighten up"!
The authors of this Blog are architecture students and friends of Vittorio Giorgini. This is a celebration of Vittorio's life and his work, especially the design work we did with him during his Professorship at Pratt Institute in New York. We will post in a sidebar here an ongoing list of his students as they are gathered, with links to the work they are doing now, if they desire.
For this blog, we respectfully request that our authors observe one small rule for posting here. As was so eloquently stated by Tony Argibay, "The one thing we are celebrating is the man that brought us together." We were all influenced in many ways by his intellegence, his perspective, his creativity, his humor, his gusto for life, his committment to excellence in architecture. Let's celebrate the Man, Vittorio Giorgini.
