Creativity and Reality. The art of Building Future Cities
The contribution investigates the theoretical-design research methodology of a didactic experience - within the PhD in Theory and Design of the Architecture of Sapienza - on compositional methods and strategies of transformation in the design of the existing. Selecting as a field of design experimentation some significant 'architectural texts' of the twentieth century, the Whitney Museum by Marcel Breuer, (New York 1966) becomes the case study through the formal analysis of the work in order to intervene with actions of adaptation and manipulation of the original form.
