The Booklist is a blog about books, images and stories.
BOOKS is a journey through the through the way in which art, architecture and the city are narrated and recorded. In a time when digital information is overcoming print, the Booklist reclaims the importance of books as instruments of investigation and imagination of the everyday.
IMAGES is the place where I organize my vast personal archive of pictures, photographs, collages and drawings. Everyday I find, collect and manipulate images to work, to develop ideas, to record data or to think architectural projects. The outcome is an unpredictable and everchanging visual autobiography.
STORIES is a research project that I’m developing within the University of Camerino, working on the idea of exhibition as narrative: a physical and conceptual space where buildings, places, objects and strategies are told.
