Querida Cristina,
La iglesia de San Giovanni Bono se incluyó en el
proyecto de construcción del nuevo barrio de
Sant'Ambrogio en Milán que se construyó en 1968.
El diseño de la iglesia y de todo el barrio se debe
a Arrigo Arrighetti. Las paredes, tanto interiores
como exteriores, están hechas de hormigón armado
visto, perforadas por una gran cantidad de pequeñas
ventanas de colores.

“This has been clear for centuries: from Romans to
Romanics, from Gothics to Brunelleschi, from
Bramante to Guarini, the conquest and resolution of
interior space coincided with the conquest and history
of architecture itself.” (Luigi Moretti)

R
2403. Longuelo, Bergamo. Chiesa dell'Immacolata
Dear Rodney,
The intricate concrete structure of this church in
Longuelo forms a tensile structure reminiscent of
a sail, or, symbolically, Moses's tent.

Dear Luigi,
"Modern architecture does not consist in the use of
new materials and construction techniques: all means
of construction are valid at all times, provided they
are logical and still efficient." (Franco Albini)

2362. Riola. Chiesa di Alvar Aalto
Dear Mario,
"Architecture must always have charm; it is a crystallized
sense of being at home, in one's region, in one's country,
on the earth. It is a matter of profound harmony."

Dear Luca,
At the entrance of this Sanctuary
there is a message that encapsulates
the meaning of this place:
"Unity in plurality is achieved when
we look upwards, where we see more
of what unites rather than what divides"

Querida Cristina,
Una foto de las maravillosas piscinas del Hotel
Royal de San Remo, creadas por el gran Gio Ponti
a mediados del siglo pasado.
Como Ponti decía, el diseño conforma la cultura,
esta origina los valores de la sociedad que a su
vez condicionan el futuro.

Dear Paolo,
"Architecture seems to gather even more densely
than any other art, in a continuity of alternatives,
the two extreme polarities of the human rhythm:
the density of realistic presence, and enchantment,
that is, the overcoming of this presence."
(Luigi Moretti)
Cheers,
R
2193. Chiesa di Dio Padre Misericordioso, Roma
Dear Paolo,
"Rome has not seen a modern building in more than
half a century. It is a city frozen in time."

2174. Sorbolo. Asilo Monumento
Querido Juan,
"La arquitectura no deriva de una suma de longitudes,
anchuras y alturas de los elementos constructivos que
envuelven el espacio, sino que dimana propiamente
del vacío, del espacio envuelto, del espacio interior,
en el cual los hombres viven y se mueven."
(Bruno Zevi, "Saber Ver la Arquitectura")
Un abrazo,
R
2159. Valle d'Aosta, Cervinia-Breuil
Dear Marco,
The tall building in the center of the picture is the

by Carlo Mollino. This extraordinary man used to
think that everything is permissible as long as it is
fantastic.

Dear Oliver,
"My generation has always been about the product,
but I believe more than anything now that we need
to focus on the process."
