Brion Cemetery - Carlo Scarpa



2 comments:

  1. A breath-taking piece of architecture, this one. I remember prattling on at length about it in various architectural theory papers back at university. So many poetic moves in one project - so much depth.

    It's one of those places I am dying to visit, simply to dig the 'genius loci' and to see if the marvellous metaphor and hidden depths of the cemetery flow through in actuality as clearly as they do in drawn form and photograph.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
