Spazio Sensoriale is an experiential architecture that invites the visitor to perceive the matter of silence.

A threshold path leads into a structure of concrete and light, where the rhythm of the vertical pillars – like trees or breaths – marks the dialogue between interior and nature.

It is a place to be crossed slowly, where space becomes sound, and sound dissolves in the measure of light.

A minimal gesture that holds a question: how much silence inhabits architecture?

Work presented at the 13th Venice Architecture Biennale (2012)
