ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRATION FOR THE AEOLIAN ENERGIES
For centuries constructions have confronted themselves with the materials which are typical of architecture and construction technologies, evolving and undergoing structural mutations as new families of materials appeared, new static and structural patterns developed but, also, new ethical and anthropological values were established.
Innovation in techniques and construction processes and subsequent renegotiation on forms and expressions. New alphabets of constructing and rewriting a new historical sedimentation of architecture. The work proposal aims to a partial investigation: exploring the integration in the architectural artifacts of new technical elements featuring a compatible energy consumption and, specifically, of those elements devised for producing aeolian energy. Born and standardized also for habitation purposes, lacking features for a potential integration into the context, with a low impact in terms of size but not similar to standard facilities or equipments, not too large to be declared not admissible, they are still waiting for verifications concerning the possibility of receiving hospitality in the territory of the architecture. Therein, where the area of design plays the typical role of research and experimental investigation: the relation between the body and the language of architecture. Opportunities offered by the ensemble of needs and architectural consequences in conforming the body or the side elements.
