Reinterpretive fanzine of the Palladian villas.
Palladio/modern was born as an exercise in reflection on a recurring theme in current architecture: spaces without a defined program. You only need to review the contests and projects carried out in recent years, where proposals with these characteristics are awarded.
Analyzing the compositional structures of the new homes, it is easy for classic structures such as the villas of Andrea Palladio (16th century) to come to mind. The fanzine is the result of a very simple exercise of redrawing Palladian palaces with a contemporary graphic style. Starting from the basis that the distributions play with small rooms that function as server spaces and larger rooms, as served spaces. Where there are server spaces in the villas they translate to bathrooms and kitchens in the redraw. There is an effort to maintain a constant scale in all the redrawings, since it is important that the distributions are as similar to current homes as possible.
This is how a document is generated in comparative fanzine format of 19 villas that invites us to imagine new ways of living.
