In the main stream of researches supported by the Department of History of the BU Bogaziçi University, the Department of Architecture drawing/survey history design of the University of Florence is developing the pilot project for the refurbishment of the garden at Halet in Arnavtkoi, on the European side of the Bosporus.
A dignity and respect for the house and a WISH FOR ARCHITECTURE above all, which the town seems to have lost since.
Here is the ability of Albini to resist, made up of extremely courteous gestures. Precise, able to demonstrate a principle almost by exhibiting its own lightness, never oppressive or heavy and always elegant despite the ‘costruirsi povero’, and never, above all, arrogant.
Through this technical ability comes the construction of an idea of minimal decor (similar to some milanese houses of the early ’900). What was deco- ration when marble effect plaster was enough to evoke a stone stairway that you could never afford?
If in the quarter of Fabio Filzi in Viale Argonne, the loggias are slightly with- drawn compared to the kitchens and the exaggerated chiaroscuro shows the living room in shade, seemingly wanting to reach out into the open, in the Ettore Ponti Quarter sheltered by Via Maspero, Via Monte Cimone and Via Turchino, the chiaroscuro frames the facade with an eyelid which pro- trudes above and gives it volume, containing it, protecting the home. Sometimes a few centimetres are enough to conform a space.
Has this town been able to produce projects in the years following this? Maybe only for those who are looking for lukewarm (anyway tender) ultimately peripheral centres.
