Signed by Atelier Jean Nouvel and Aspect Studio, The Roof in Shanghai is a contemporary condenser of languages that refers to the spatialities of European cities and the places of the ancient Chinese metropolis, up to the biophilic architecture that increasingly characterizes contemporary architectural experiments in every part of the world. An unprecedented urban passage where the chaotic jumble of pots in the streets of the old lilong districts is masterfully evoked as a distinctive feature of the intervention that, through architectural elements characterized by the symbolic red color, becomes the spokesman of a nature which, unraveling vertically, becomes the interpreter of a surprising contemporaneity.

Abstract
Signed by Atelier Jean Nouvel and Aspect Studio, The Roof in Shanghai is a contemporary condenser of languages that refers to the spatialities of European cities and the places of the ancient Chinese metropolis, up to the biophilic architecture that increasingly characterizes contemporary architectural experiments in every part of the world. An unprecedented urban passage where the chaotic jumble of pots in the streets of the old lilong districts is masterfully evoked as a distinctive feature of the intervention that, through architectural elements characterized by the symbolic red color, becomes the spokesman of a nature which, unraveling vertically, becomes the interpreter of a surprising contemporaneity.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
