Light Jazz #5 PRIVATE HOUSE EXTENSION By UGSprogetti

Light Jazz # 5 is a short story. It looks like an installation, a work of land art/ architectural design. But most of all is what we believe to be contemporary architecture: the solution to a complex system. The properties required to study a project idea that can recover the volumes  from two terraces to annex to the existing apartment (which occupies the top floor of a prestigious building in Bologna) in order to completely reinvent the space. The proposal was to create two spaces in which to have a constant "light moto" capable of inducing sensory stimuli always different during the day. We do this by "playing"the light, natural and artificial, by entering into a specially designed device architecture. Imagine a new paradigm in which landscape and architecture come together in the new building addition to the building, in contrast to which the new architecture, made of lightweight lenses glass surfaces, stainless steel connecting networks and rheinzink Preoxidation drawn, is articulated in the landscape and occupy part of the roof as a new type of genetically modified plant essence. The experience of the audience will be composed of a series of random views, total and partial of the landscape, always different; the sequences of changing perspectives make dynamic spaces in which the landscape blends with the architecture.

When passing through small holes, the light expands, breaks and bends. The resulting shadows do not necessarily resemble the silhouette of the objects from which they projected. The light bends to form shadows made of bright and dark bands or bands without sharp edges. Quantum theory forces us to accept the idea of parallel universes represented by photons and by the flashes of light waves and shadows. The mysteries of the science of light are similar to the physiological wonders that produces the natural light in architecture: the faint glow of the small reflected daylight, the brightness of a wall of wet plaster from sunlight and changes in heavy shadows and light shadows given by reflected color. The range of amazing phenomena of light and shadow contains ambiguities that mysterious glow in elastically un'onirica uncertainty.
The luminescence of the shadow lines against a canvas or a sheet of white glass crystallize the theater of light.
The endless possibilities of light are evident from the very beginning of architecture and will be in the future.
