Dreamer Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Deixo aqui um artigo que encontrei sobre um projecto em que aquilo que para muitos é um dos elementos mais feios da cidade (talvez a par das marquises), o "split" do ar condicionado, foi tido em conta na fase de projecto, tentando de alguma forma integrá-los na imagem do edifício. Virtual Air Conditioners by Bolles Wilson in Albania http-~~-//arkispot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/BollesWilson/bolleswilson01.jpg The building on the corner of Ismail Qemali and 4 Shkurti (as is often the case in Mediterranean countries) is covered with a generous scattering of air-conditioners. What to do? Pretend they are not there or use the new colour concept to authenticate the “little white parasite-boxes with round, off-center, Cyclops-eye vent”. The Virtual Air-Conditioner Concept, scatters potential sites for future climatizers across the façade, a strategy which instantly legitimises the random placement of those already in service. The building itself is homogenised by the application of red and orange stripes faithfully scaled up from the original watercolor sketch. The resulting of the compositional middle-scale, a juxtaposing of local incident against the rediscovered total building volume, achieved an instant iconic status on the skyline of Tirana and also on the vibrant street of restaurants, cafes and bars in which it lands. http-~~-//arkispot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/BollesWilson/bolleswilson02.jpg http-~~-//arkispot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/BollesWilson/bolleswilson03.jpg http-~~-//arkispot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/BollesWilson/bolleswilson04.jpg Lihk do gabinete:http://www.bolles-wilson.com/flash/ Link do artigo:http://arkispot.com/blog/bolles-wilson/2006/08/14/virtual-air-conditioners/ Não é incrível tudo o que pode caber dentro de um lápis?...

Clive Sinclair Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Pois, bem pensado, mas os gajos esqueceram-se das antenas parabólicas que qualquer albanês que se preze tem para apanhar com fartura os canais italianos. :* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
