Ben van Berkel, UNStudio talks about the #Canaletto_Tower in #London


Canaletto Tower is the latest in a long list of residential buildings for #UNStudio . It is based on the idea of #Streets_in_the_Sky .

Ben van Berkel
"The first architects that were fascinated with this idea of the Street in the Sky were the Smithsons, and the reason why it failed was because they weren’t attractive. They were harsh in terms of material, organization, they were alienating and not inviting nor safe, which is way many of these semi public spaces are now abandoned."

#Ben_van_Berkel
"Architecture is just background. The beauty of architecture is that it brings people together and can create public constructs. Once you know how to make this work you can also make it attractive, not only in its image but also in it’s after image. It becomes something that people can come back to and reanalyze."
