The book claims the good work, from not building, from minimums, from reuse or dismantling if necessary. It shows that making architecture – true architecture – is sometimes just a matter of small interventions: orienting a chair to contemplate the landscape, or simply to see the grass grow. Always from the perception of the polis, of the city, in reference to the common good, to the life of each one, of all the citizens. Because it is not enough to survive but, as Aristoteles said, to live well.
From Subtraction. The book aims to be a meeting place for those who feel affinity for this approach and the foundation to continue developing the lines of thought and the tools of intervention the text enunciates.
From Subtraction, it is possible to do more and better, for the good life.
