Certo che in un sito cosi' stretto e lungo essere riusciti a farci stare appartamenti e garages... Curious to see the construction ...

IMHO It looks like a student project without soul and without concept, an example of bad formalism with poor detailing. It would be great to see the other side too. Sperando di vedervi la prossima volta con un´opera piu´ convincente vi invio i migliori auguri di buon lavoro. Ciao I´m an italian architect and I personally don´t like this project.

And i have a lot of respect for people's work. But i think it's worst to say "it's cool" when it's bad! I'm sorry but i am sure, it's horrible to live in this "bunker". And when i see what architects are doing in nederland, deutchland, switzerland... To finish, i think that wee don't have to be better to critic, as a coach with his team or player...

Squeezing your vehicle in down there looks nightmarish. I would hate to be living in the last unit, not having anyway to back my car out of that mess. I generally do not get into criticizing form based design, unless details such as this one, are horrendously overlooked. The spaces between floors could be used for ventilation, we don't know from the renders, we don't have all details. I guess what is most strange for me, besides the Hades parking scheme, is that the form suggests a framed view. The renderings show your generic forest of trees. I suppose it would be nice to have some context of the neighborhood besides the pretty muted house forms. I might appreciate this concept more with views of a real place.

A bad effort to make simple architecture something special. Painting the inside of the loggias is not brilliant work. What's the conceptional idea????? @ Polarors: If this is great architecture, i don’t wanna know what’s bad. A bad effort to make simple architecture something special.
