This book is based on two premises: the first is the will to identify and describe a network of existing relationships in a culture of new multidisciplinary connections ranging from the city to architecture and design by way of photography. The other is that, in a difficult country like Italy, challenging the problems of communicating and promoting contemporary architecture projects is a far from straightforward task. This has led to an increasingly intense exchange of ideas and given riese to a new working method based on this continuous interchange, both virtual or real, between architects in differing contexts, not immediately apparent in their collective processes but undoubtedly present in their individual approaches. Coming together and dissolving with remarkable ease, each of these groups is born and lives to generate new initiatives with a view to enhancing its visibility and promoting itself in Italy and beyond. Edited by G. Pino Scaglione, this snapshot of Italy includes projects by Multiplicity, Armin Linke, Avatar, Nunzio Battaglia, Ian+, Stalker, Fabrizio Leoni, Gabriele Basilico and Dapstudios.
