Bravo, Francesco!! An excellent work! Do you remember me? We lived together in Pamplona, we shared a flat.
Congratulations!

Friedrich Nietzsche said, “I never attack persons, but only ideas, and only after they have become successful.”
In this way Lebbeus Wood starts his post about CRITICIMS in his own blog.
The LW post is very interesting for all those architects who don’t understand that to criticize our colleagues is important and really useful when it shows how to go ahead in a better or a different way.

For those who won’t read the LW post I’d like to report his conclusion:

‘’There are ways of criticizing that are harsh, brutal, and destructive. These are, needless to say, counterproductive. But also there are ways to criticize that are honest and direct, but emphasize what is valuable in a given work, leaving what is not to simply fall away. Einstein’s critique of the “aether’ concept in his first Relativity theory was in simply not mentioning it at all. Thereafter, no one else did either. Generally, criticism should show the way forward’’.

Long life to critics! (Only the clever ones…)

it’s a smart project cause it relates with an italian atmosphere to eat a pizza in a “real” and honest place (have you been in napoli? than you know what i mean) and also try to merge all this with the actual sleek bi-dimensional world of architecture. context is something to understand sometimes..

I’ve been there and “definetely” eaten pizza, too. Nice night and friendly atmosphere, because some friends were there. (People first, architecture follows.) Pleased to find some others here in the forum guessing about things (including pizza’s taste) known only by photos. How smart you are! And congratulations for your English skills surprisingly improving though living in Spain.
Ciao Carmelo and best regards to all your ‘nothing personal’ remarking team.
See you soon for a pizza!

Awful! Uncomfortable, gloomy, bleak atmosphere, which could only make me feel melancholy and uneased. Definitely, not a place where you could ever possibly enjoy a pizza.

As far as (some) formal features are concerned, the general conception is fine, part of the furniture is ok (if one doesn’t mind the colours, especially the Shining-red lavatory), tools and crockery showcased ok… generally speaking, it smells a sort of minimalist and constructivist…. except I’ve been told the (general) project has been PLAGIARIZED and, ultimately, STOLEN! ahaha!

Hail to the (architectural) thieves!
