A house from a drawing of Ettore Sottsass – Cabinet of Curiosities
PAVILLION, ORLEANS, FRENCH - 2017 DESIGN TEAM: 2A+P/A (Gianfranco Bombaci, Matteo Costanzo) Architettura Monumentale is an axonometric projection showing two sides of a volume standing on a tiled pavement with a grey sky in the background. The building is dark, rough and introverted, lacking an explicit function. The challenge of the project was to imagine life within this form: starting from the partially defined outer volume we unveiled the invisible facades and entered into the unexplored interior to finally conquer the building as a whole. For the first Biennale in Orléans the project has been built in a reduced version, turning the house into a Cabinet of Curiosity. Architettura Monumentale became a pavilion, a new exhibition space for the city of Orléans that, after a temporary installation in front of the Mediathéque d'Orléans, will be moved and permanently installed in Parc Floral de La Source. 2A+P/A has curated also the first exhibition host by the pavilion. The series of drawings is a visual essay that exposes our idea of architecture in its intimate form.- 2A+P-A-Cabinet-of-curiosities-Orleans
