The second building of my choice is the called Holiday Skyscraper in Sentina,
Sentina is an abandoned and degraded place situated in Italy’s west coast. The space dimension of this almost uncontaminated landscape which needs a new construction that takes into consideration history and nature.
The basis of this particular project traces a track of this landscape, a linear axis, a mixture of history and contemporary life: a route that highlights the presence of ancient country houses and an axis that ends unavoidably at the sea.
As it meets the line of the sea, the road bends, transforming into a skyscraper, which is one hundred and fifty meters high. It creates a conflict between nature and artifice, between ancient and modern.
What appealed to me about this particlar building were the conflicting qualities with in the building. Because of this i think this building is also very easily adapted into different environments
