Master's diploma thesis, 2012

Theme: a sanatorium resort center.

To escape the growing mass culture, where everything seems to be a copy of a copy, finding new paradigms in architecture is problematic. Architecture alone cannot overcome the crisis. It needs a "donor" This donor is the world of art and painting. Studio Poetics of Architecture engages with the tradition of naivist painting.

Yes, this is a play and it follows my previous plays in the Studio Poetics of Architecture.

The project refers to Cesare Novi's painting, to "Zauberberg" and Galaktion Tabidze's poem.

The floors under the mountain like surfaces host different living scenarios: one floor you find a traditional room, on the other capsules, and yet on another a single floor space to erect individual tents.
