The drawing of the territory’s form

Abstract

The term construction indicates to the territorial and geographical dimension a practice that is not exclusively about building, but about the meaning and value of a process of reinterpretation and formal restructuring of the existing. In relation to the space to be represented, therefore, the type of representation of space changes, which must describe not only different scales but also the elements and relationships that define it, as well as communicate, even at the big scale, a spatial form and idea of space. The canonical drawings and urbanistic representations give way to the invention of an almost biographical writing, aimed at describing intentions, interpretations and relationships between forms through the use of an expressive code that lies somewhere between concept and image.
