"PIANO HAS NO SIGNATURE STYLE. INSTEAD, HIS WORK IS CHARACTERIZED BY A GENIUS FOR BALANCE AND CONTEXT“- PAUL GOLDBERGER,

Architect’s words I WANTED TO BE A MUSICIAN,

BUT I WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH SO I BECAME AN ARCHITECT...IT'S REALLY QUITE THERATICAL. MUSIC IS ABOUT ORDER AND MATHEMATICS. ORDER AND DISORDER, AS WELL AS, DISCIPLINE AND FREEDOM ARE PART OF THIS ARTISTIC STRUGGLE. ARCHITECTURE, LIKE MUSIC, DEPENDS A LOT ON DISCIPLINE AND ORDER, AND THEN YOU PLAY THAT ORDER,WHICH I INTERPRET AS SETTING UP FRAMEWORKS TO WORK WITHIN. BUT SOMETIMES, YOU MUST BECOME DISOBEDIENT TO THAT DISCIPLINE, AND YOU BREAK THE ORDER

"IT IS MY BELIEF THAT EXCITING THINGS HAPPEN WHEN A VARIETY OF OVERLAPPING ACTIVITIES DESIGNED FOR ALL PEOPLE—THE OLD AND THE YOUNG, THE BLUE AND WHITE COLLAR, THE LOCAL INHABITANT AND THE VISITOR, DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES FOR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS—MEET IN A FLEXIBLE ENVIRONMENT, OPENING UP THE POSSIBILITY OF INTERACTION OUTSIDE THE CONFINES OF INSTITUTIONAL LIMITS. WHEN THIS TAKES PLACE, DEPRIVED AREAS WELCOME DYNAMIC PLACES FOR THOSE WHO LIVE, WORK AND VISIT; PLACES WHERE ALL CAN PARTICIPATE, RATHER THAN LESS OR MORE BEAUTIFUL GHETTOS."

"Architecture is an artistic craft, but at the same time it is also a scientific profession, it is precisely its distinctiveness" "Architecture is a service."

"When style gets to become a brand, a personal seal, this becomes a cage"

"The architect is first and foremost a builder, but also should be a poet, and above all a humanist''

IDEOLOGIES AND QUOTES

His architecture is defined as solid construction made by excellent materials .

CHARACTERIZED BY :

Architecture is about exploring. Culturally, historically, psychologically, anthropologically, and topographically, every job is different. So the real risk is that as an architect you end up imposing your stamp before you understand what is the reality of a place. It is not necessarily to integrate with the context. Sometimes architecture should not integrate, but should make a contribution to the context.,

RENZO PIANO: ECOLOGICAL INNOVATORFor the great

Italian architect Renzo Piano, the protection of the environment,is far from being a limitation, it has also become a "source of inspiration" for the development of major projects being undertaken in many countries.

AN INTERVIEW Is there a Renzo Piano style at this point? Is there a signature that if someone came upon a building, didn't know it was yours, would they look at it and say that looks like a Piano?

RP: I think so, but you know, let's put it this way. I don't like the idea that the first preparation, when you start to design, your building has to put your stamp. For example, I love working with very light elements, transparency, and natural light. So when the building's finished, you recognize those elements in some way. But I think imposing your style may be actually very limiting, because you may end by simply imposing your style, instead of understanding the need of people. Every scheme is a new adventure even if you make another building...that is the reason why you have to be careful not to become self referential.instead of listening to the new place and the new voices you keep promoting your own kind of ego. I don't want to be moralist, but when this happens it is not just bad for architects, it's bad for everybody...So the real risk is that as an architect you end up imposing your stamp before you understand what is the reality of a place. I never take a new job without visiting the place, without trying to understand, without trying to get a basic, fundamental emotion...that truth is the real source of inspiration and if you close yourself in your little gold cage you end up becoming repetitive.

RICHARD ROGERS

RENZO PIANO

AFTER WORKING WITH LOUIS KAHN FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS, PIANO JOINED FORCES WITH BRITISH ARCHITECT RICHARD ROGERS IN 1971 AND DESIGNED WHAT WAS TO BE A CAREER-DEFINING PROJECT FOR BOTH OF THEM, THE CENTRE GEORGES POMPIDOU IN PARIS. THE PROJECT WAS VIGOROUSLY DISCUSSED AT THE TIME OF ITS CONSTRUCTION DUE TO ITS RADICAL DESIGN STRATEGY OF EXPOSING ALL TECHNICAL FUNCTIONS ON THE OUTSIDE. THE PUBLIC OPINION HAS SHIFTED SINCE THEN, HOWEVER, AND TODAY IT IS CELEBRATED FOR ITS BOLDNESS AND WIDELY REGARDED AS ONE OF THE CITY'S MOST PREEMINENT CONTEMPORARY LANDMARKS.

IN 1970 an international architectural competition was launched based on a program to build a cultural and arts complex in the centre of historic Paris set out by French President Georges Pompidou.

ELEVATIONAL DRAWING

ELEVATIONS:

SECTIONAL ELEVATION - NORTH

Architecture is more than just putting things together. It's about the organic, about illusions, a sense of memory, and a textural approach. I must admit, though, that I still love the idea of putting parts together. I love the idea that you go from the general to the detail and then from the detail to the general. It's a double process. You cannot think about the presence of the building in the city without thinking about materiality. And when you think about materiality, you start to think about detail
