The IT revolution in architecture

"Light Architecture is an attempt at a synthesis between two worlds still considered incompatible: the real world and the virtual world. The need for this fusion has now become obvious; a fusion that has entered into our imagery. Light Architecture proposes unifying virtual space with concrete reality in order to maintain a unity of perception of the real and thus create a single dimension: "stereoreality", where everything is the result of those two spaces. In particular, to fight the risk of isolation by the computer and dependency on the Internet created by the relationship with virtual reality, we are working on integration on an urban scale, i.e. a new dimension of architecture inside the city. The city of the future in fact foresees the co-existence of two urban realities: the real city (with its center, its periphery and the well-known problems that presently characterize it) and the virtual city."--Back cover.
