Chromo_Land. Colour, light and built environment

Let’s look backwards to see what happened before. I would like to suggest the reader a kind of architectural historical rewind in order to understand which winding streets led us to the contemporary. Today seems evident, though it is more obscure and confused, be-cause we are the protagonists. The more we enter the past, the more glimmers open up to our eyes, eyes that are open to try to understand the territory of colour, which is the terri-tory of human beings. We do this as architects, because this is our profession and interest, often just a statement of belief. Well, let's start this journey back in time and space. Chaos, turbulence and waves seem to be factors we must mistrust, weren’t they some of the fundamental assumptions of our contemporary life. All the rules previously in force appear to have been finally pulverised under the pressure of the contemporary. The new territory that obeys to these conditions require that all squaring, every pure geometric form, as banal and simplistic, the result of simple minds, who preferred the purity, regularity, certainty of any rule, must be ripped.
