Favourite (interior) architecture project
The ‘project’ that impacted me the most during my architecture studies and to which I keep returning as a reference, is the novel Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. Although not a work of architecture and not even really a book about architecture, it nonetheless captures most what architecture is about: the intertwinement of physical space with human and non-human lives, memories, histories, stories and imagination.
