Re-Edificatoria

Re-build, build on what already exists, pick a project and redo it from top to bottom. The intersection of two eras, two architects, two different construction techniques: an explosive encounter. A cross in the same space and time of destruction and construction, demolition and installation. The two worlds intermingle in a temporary chaos. The guts of the work, imperfect, brutal, complex, unpredictable, are scattered throughout the slit open building. New interventions overlap multiple layers that did not even know existed, forming a sandwich of the building's history. An impure solutions catalog, gradually portions are removed, others sewed, capped, and in the end there are no traces of drastic intervention. Having seen the building inside shows his true inner beyond its final appearance.
