Giuseppe Fallacara on Digital Stereotomy
Giuseppe Fallacara is an architect and full professor in architectural design at the Polytechnic University of Bari where he leads the New Fundamentals Research Group. He focuses his research on stereotomy, a construction technique based on stone that suffered from the 20th-century diffusion of concrete and steel. I interviewed him to understand more about this technique, which could play a central role in the sustainable development of our cities thanks to digital tools and parametric architecture.

The most ambitious project in the history of communication design
The Pioneer 10 is the first man-made object we sent outside our solar system. It holds the most ambitious visual communication project ever conceived by a human mind: a message to extraterrestrial life. The authors are Carl Sagan, Frank Drake and Linda Salzman, who carried out this incredible project just three weeks to go before launch. In this article, I explain the design problems and the decisions made by the authors to solve them.

Whether you are engaged in brand development or exploring the symbolic value in architectural design, this book serves as an invaluable resource.

Tre Piscine Cala del Cuore Qualifies for the Italian Environmental Fund Census
I am thrilled to announce that Tre Piscine Cala del Cuore has officially been recognized and included in the census conducted by the Italian Environmental Fund (FAI).

It is a result achieved thanks to the unwavering commitment of the Next association, the 15 signature collection centers that joined us for over six months, and the countless citizens and visitors who wholeheartedly supported the candidacy.
