Botticini + Facchinelli : Architectural Research Workshop: Architetture e Progetti

This architectural approach makes the preliminary conceptual content its foundation point.

Moreover, it gives to the project a non-conventional interpretation because of the always diverse requests of functionality and appearance, and because of the many stimuli coming from the landscape and the site. A collaborative, trans-disciplinary approach allows to involve different teams in the project planning.

Thanks to a dense network of experts, it is possible to establish frequent collaborative links and solve every emerging problem in the most accurate and exhaustive way. By combining project-based research with academic research at the University of Milan (Politecnico), Camillo Botticini received many awards, mostly for public works.

Such awards underline Botticini s testing ground on concrete examples, in a synthesis between pragmatism and research design phases.

His large experience on small-scale public works, accomplished with detailed precision in the area of Brescia, Italy, created a vast network of relationships and experiences, which constitute a solid launch pad. Their designs centre around the satisfying yet brutalist shape of a square.

Provoking and bold, their work is as ultra-modernist as it is unusual.
