The gestures of void
Chiara Sangermani
The research explores the possibility to transform sleeping spaces into living places by using void as a design method. The significance of the theme of void was explored from a conceptual point of view by analysing its development both in Western and Eastern cultures. As a result of the analysis, four gestures were defined to express the potentiality of void as a tool for designing spaces.
“The gestures of void” finds its spatial application in the context of Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Despite being very busy during events, the area itself lies in a situation of emptiness of space and time that can be defined as a sleeping space. The project aims to create a dynamic and living landscape, thus providing new functional solutions and activities to be experienced by the community.
