Una realt\u00e0 ben diversa dal luogo comune. Le quattro opere esposte sono firmate da studi di architettura, cos\u00ec come un film viene identificato dal nome del regista. Eppure, quelle stesse opere, De Robertis le sente sue creazioni e ne ha vissute progettazione e realizzazione al pari di tutti gli altri partecipanti.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tra questi, non ultimo, il committente, non \u00e8 solo colui che ci mette i soldi, cos\u00ec come l\u2019ingegnere non \u00e8 semplicemente il calcolatore che conosce e impone le regole dei numeri; ma spesso un visionario che sfida i limiti dell\u2019esistente alla ricerca del loro superamento.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Il fatto \u00e8 che si \u00e8 abituati a pensare alla tecnica in modo riduttivo e inadeguato, posta in un ruolo puramente strumentale e subordinato. C\u2019\u00e8 il committente che finanzia e pone lo scopo d\u2019uso dell\u2019edificio. L\u2019architetto immaginifico che ne crea la forma spaziale, conferendogli il suo valore simbolico ed estetico. L\u2019ingegnere che deve farlo stare in piedi, imponendogli le dure leggi della necessit\u00e0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ci\u00f2 perch\u00e9 per lo pi\u00f9 sfugge la logica del rapporto scopo\/mezzo. Posto lo scopo, che \u00e8 sempre ideologico in quanto \u00e8 ci\u00f2 che ancora non \u00e8 se non come idea \u2013 sia esso l\u2019uso, il piacere estetico, la statica \u2013 il mezzo per realizzarlo, ossia la tecnica con la quale si tenta di perseguirlo, \u00e8 destinato esso a rovesciarsi in scopo. \u00c8 necessario cio\u00e8 perseguire la potenza tecnica (il come si realizza il voluto) senza la quale non c\u2019\u00e8 speranza di conquistare alcuno scopo.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ne viene che l\u2019atto del progettare coinvolge allo stesso titolo committente, architetto e ingegnere e consiste propriamente nel potenziamento dei mezzi di realizzazione dei rispettivi scopi. Potenziamento che \u00e8 continua ricerca del superamento dei limiti contingenti. Quei limiti oltre i quali s\u2019incontra il futuro e, una volta incontrato, occorre di nuovo superarlo. Sicch\u00e9, l\u2019attivit\u00e0 progettante, ossia la ricerca del superamento dei limiti \u2013 lo si \u00e8 visto con chiarezza negli esempi esposti \u2013 non termina se non con la realizzazione dell\u2019opera, per poi riprendere in un\u2019altra opera.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Francesco Ventura<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Friday\u00a0&#8211; may 08th 2015 &#8211; 17.30 pm<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<h1><em>Building the architecture:\u00a0<b>\u201c<\/b>Behind the scenes<b>\u201d<\/b><\/em><\/h1>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><em>Niccol\u00f2 De Robertis &#8211;\u00a0<strong>aei progetti<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Behind every design \u2014 most think \u2014 there is the creative mind of an architect that devises the spatial configuration, and then the calculating mind of the engineer that applies rules to the already configured building that form its actual stability.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Niccol\u00f2 De Robertis clearly showed us the work done &#8220;behind the scenes&#8221; with the Aei Progetti engineering firm. It is a very different world than the stereotypes would have it. The four projects shown bear the names of architecture firms, just as a film is identified with the director&#8217;s name. Yet, for De Robertis, those works are his creations too and he experienced their planning and construction on par with all the others involved.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Important among those people is the client, who does more than put up the money, just as the engineer is not just a calculator who knows and imposes the number rules, but is often a visionary challenging the limits what is already there to try to surpass them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The fact is that we have grown accustomed to thinking of technology with a reductive, inadequate attitude, putting it in a purely instrumental, subordinate role. There&#8217;s the client who finances the project and sets the purpose of the building&#8217;s use. There is the creative architect who makes its spatial form, giving it its symbolic, aesthetic value. There is the engineer who has to make it stay standing, imposing the hard laws of necessity on it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This is because the engineer mostly eludes the logic of the purpose\/means relationship. Once the purpose has been set \u2014 and the purpose is always ideological, as it doesn&#8217;t yet exist as more than an idea \u2014 whether it is it use, aesthetic pleasure or its structure \u2014 the means for creating it, the technology used to pursue it, will always spill into the purpose. We must seek its technological power \u2014 how to implement what is desired\u2014 without which there would be no hope of it achieving any purpose.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The result is that the act of designing involves the client, architect and engineer alike and its main essence is boosting the means to achieve the purposes of each. This boosting of its power is always seeking to go beyond its contingent limitations. It is beyond these limitations that we find the future, and once found, it must be again surpassed. The work of designing \u2014 the seeking to go past limits \u2014 as clear in the examples shown \u2014 does not end until the project is completed, and then taken back up in another project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em><strong>Francesco Ventura<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Costruire l&#8217;architettura: Niccol\u00f2 De Robertis &#8211; aei progetti \u201cDietro le quinte\u201d<br \/>\n<br \/><em>Building the architecture: Niccol\u00f2 De Robertis &#8211; aei progetti \u201cBehind the scenes\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6645,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41,33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6636","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-costruire-larchitettura","category-tutti-gli-eventi"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6636","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6636"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6636\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6697,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6636\/revisions\/6697"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6636"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6636"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spazioafirenze.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6636"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
