The Journey
The Journey
To Risk: to expose, someone or something valued, to danger, harm, or loss; [synonym] to chance; the possibility of something bad happening.
The project is a journey through the resilient city of Venice, that learned to live with the uncanniness of water since the 4th century. Carlo Scarpa highlighted this indeterminateness into the design of Querini Stampalia, letting water flow naturally from the outside canal to the historical building. Here it melts with light and becomes a mirror reflecting the internal garden creating a new microcosmo.
