| Sumario: | The case analyzed is a recent unpublished work carried out by the architect Nicolas Campodonico in the city of Rosario. It is possible to connect his architectural thought with a typology of contribution to the discipline that should be considered fruit of the empirical dimension of his work. The procedures and the syntactic method of this architecture are based on a figure rigorously constructed over time and works in which the possible theoretical dimension must be traced and reconstructed afterwards. The first part of the essay, after a detailed description of the work considered, addresses this dimension. From the definition of the fundamental compositive element as wall-mask conjectures are made to relate the instrumental value of the device to some suggestive ideas recorded in recent history regarding the theme of the mask in architecture. The second part deals with the technical description of some empirically verifiable results and effects.
The work of Campodonico -an architect with an intense and important background- deserves to be studied and highlighted. His procedures are intuitive, they seem to be gathering thoughts about reality to convey them through the form in a natural and spontaneous way. |
