Mapping The Edge
Inverted Urban Spaces : Genoa, Italy
We fabricated an ideology of an extended land, which was an opportunity for growth as the city itself evolved. The driving force was to extend the city onto the sea to create a new urban fabric while maintaining some of the conditions of the existing site. The urban fabric was pulled apart
to construct two systems in tension.
This spatial tension then generated the public spaces. Within this, three conditions were constructed to formulate different spaces. The first were interlocked, the spaces came together to make one. The second condition, a piazza was created by the tension between the two systems meeting in the
middle. The third, one system reaches to the other one and produces a public space.
