“This time I am going to tell you a story. It is the story of a failed utopian project where a whole city was intended to be squeezed into a single massive building. The story of a failed social housing experiment that could have changed a city forever and ended up being remembered as a perennial failure. It is the story of an architect who tried to create something futuristic for a city stuck in its past. The story of a project representing the pinnacle of brutalist architecture for social housing. This is the story of Corviale. Shot in Rome 31/12/2021.” |
