decades many leading architects had shifted their interests to materiality and cultural
consumption, with the aim of creating 'icons'.
'casa per tutti' reintroduces the theme of 'habitation' and its recent resurgence
in the architectural realm.
the exhibition showcases constructive design reactions to social requirements
of communities and individuals who are deprived of the right to a home. the works
on show re-announce the theme of the house as a primary resource in critical
situations caused by urban and environmental emergencies.
