Testimonials
Fabrizio Carola, Santa Cruz Community House project“What’s more beautiful for Architects than stirring their passion for architecture with the pleasure of building, the pleasure of being useful, the pleasure of living and working in a new environment in harmony with other cultures?
These young people have tried all that by coming out of their world of habits and conventions to get into a context where it is possible to model architecture with their own hands, get into the intimacy of materials, and invent or discover the most suitable solution for each problem.
They have had the pleasure of seeing their project become a reality. They have learned from this experience much more than a hundred books. Now they can be said to be Architects …
They did a good job with their intelligence and above all, their sense of fun!”
