ARCH: Behi(yo)nd a Picture

CONTENT / Starting from a picture chosen by me the students are asked for developing the architecture of the landscape the image represented in it. The picture could be a painting but also a comic or postcard and the students have to produce plans, section, and sketches and all they consider enough to represent the architecture they image is “behind” o “beyond” the picture.  During the critic student will show the concept of the architecture they are going to develop.
