Urbino connection
1980.
During ILAUD workshop concerning different kind of intervention in this
historic town with latter 19./20. century addition part, I gave an proposal.
Urbino old town encompasses with walls, with Ducale Palace and other glorified
edifices, is quite apart from newer part of town. Topographical configuration
and rounded way between them is quite obstacles in everyday communication.
With some tunnel connection, either just walkway, or moving cabin, moving
walkway, travelator, this problem would be solved. Somehow I was proud
on my solution - but
My proposal was not accepted as a good idea by Giancalo
di Carlo, Herman Hertzberger was even more critical, and after them some
other participants were critical too. I don't remember that anyone supported
this proposal. After so many years passed, I still cannot see what is so
wrong with this idea. |
