Daily, I live passionately everything I come in contact with and I feel that no other choice would have been possible for my life except this magical architecture.
I face it dreamy, maybe beacause I am still too young or maybe beacause I had too little working experiences : I really desire to learn and I aim high.
According to me, being an architect is a life mission; it is not a job; it is a life style, a way to live. We can feel it forever or never know it. I like thinking that who takes this way, take the blame of pursuing his/her own and other’s happiness. We can not live alone in this world, where everything is architecture and where we create it first with our presence and natural aggregative instinct. For me, ar- chitecture is construcion and non-construction. But especially we are the ones who, in accordance to continuous choices, move, create spaces, and hence architecture.
Architect’s duty is to provide alternatives: first of all the possibility of being free, and feeling the potentialities of life. I ask myself what I desire, how I would like to live and the only possible answer for me is that I want to realize this dream, for me and for others.
One day, I would like to be one of those that feel “their” spaces very strongly; I would like to know how you feel to see our ideas coming to life. I wonder which is the limit between contemporary art and architecture............ if it exists.
I’m looking for emotions and ... architecture moves me. Valeria Colavita
