Skrevet af MAZZANTI
Giancarlo Mazzanti was invited this year by the Wouter Mikmak Foundation
to lecture in the Designers of the Future series because of the
exceptionally engaged character of his architectural practice, wherein
he demonstrates that it is also possible to situate social values at the
core of architectural design. He aims to empower transformations and
build community, focusing on adapting architecture to make it capable of
changing behaviour. It is Mazzanti’s belief that architecture’s worth
is based not only on itself but also on what it produces, on its
capacity to perform rather than on its capacity to represent. Topical
perspectives are illustrated with exemplary case studies.
