C.R.A.C.
ROME - finalist
The architect doesn’t take into consideration the possibility of  his building to become a ruin. However, not just this happened, but in a exact moment, between the start of the costruction and its completion, the building will have an aspect that show its destiny.”  There are two different times when the building shows itself in its pure essence: when the building is undercostraction and when it is completly in a state of abandonment. The concept is based on “the crystallization” of the City Sport of Rome, transforming it in the C.R.A.C. (Centro Romano D’arte Contemporanea).  The operation of crystallization, helped by the metal structure high 90 meters that makes the City Sport as a real landmark of Rome, defines the building as a symbol of the unfinished and a warning for the bad design and programmation.
