![]() ![]() Instead of hastily perused information, we prefer knowledge calmly absorbed. Instead of a quick, distracted web, we want a slow, attentive one. Patient work, done with care, image after image, project after project, to offer you the ideal tool with which to organize your knowledge of contemporary architecture. Join us in taking a stand against the short attention architecture media.ĭivisare is the result of an effort of selection and classification of contemporary architecture conducted for over twenty years. The work of Pnat covers the fields of sustainable architecture, bio design, education, urban ecology, material engineering. It uses bio-mimetic applications as a tool to establish a new design approach and at the same time investigates innovative methods of cooperating with plants to set up new relationships between natural and artificial environments. Pnat uses nature as a model and as a co-worker. Mimicking patterns of natural processes lead to face emerging problems such as environmental changes and depletion of resources in a sustainable way. Pnat is an emerging think tank of designers and biologists with the aim of merging plants, research, science and creativity. In 2014 Antonio Girardi and Cristiana Favretto co-founded with professor Stefano Mancuso and the researchers Elisa Masi, Camilla Pandolfi and Elisa Azzarello the start up Pnat. It is mobile because it shifts among different disciplines involving mixes of software, creative thinking, handicraft, lab-activities, cultural and social research and whatever else is necessary to create multifunctional solutions and innovative imaginaries. It conceives the design as a holistic field where blending architecture, art, technology and urban planning. ![]() Studiomobile is a design office established by Antonio Girardi and Cristiana Favretto in 2007. It is a different idea of the web, which we might call slow web. banners, pop-ups or other distracting noise. No "click me," "tweet me, "share me,” "like me." No advertising. ![]() Behind all this there is the certainty that we can do better than the fast, distracted web we know today, where the prevailing business model is: "you make money only if you manage to distract your readers from the contents of your own site." With divisare we want to offer the possibility, instead, of perceiving content without distractions. A long, patient job of cataloguing, done by hand: image after image, project after project, post after post. Every Collection in our Atlas tells a particular story, conveys a specific viewpoint from which to observe the last 20 years of contemporary architecture. Our model was the bookcase, on whose shelves we have gathered and continue to collect hundreds and hundreds of publications by theme. So we began to build divisare not vertically, but horizontally. May be because we wanted to distinguish divisare from the web that is condemned to a sort of vertical communication, always with the newest architecture at the top of the page, as the "cover story," "the focus."Ĭontent that was destined, just like the oh-so-new architecture that had just preceded it a few hours earlier, to rapidly slide down, day after day, lower and lower, in a vertical plunge towards the scrapheap of page 2. ![]()
