Vittorio Giorgini’s design process was based on the direct observation of natural structures and the design and construction of models, the fundamental and essential element of all his research. Giorgini’s urban architectural journey took place within the complex world of ‘Spatiology’, a term coined by Giorgini, where his studies on the interaction between humans, the environment and nature converged. Giorgini’s investigations about curved systems as shells and membranes and analysis of octahedral and dodecahedral geometrical shapes are finalized to make buildings using only the strictly required material, just like it happens with the natural world.

Abstract

Vittorio Giorgini’s design process was based on the direct observation of natural structures and the design and construction of models, the fundamental and essential element of all his research. Giorgini’s urban architectural journey took place within the complex world of ‘Spatiology’, a term coined by Giorgini, where his studies on the interaction between humans, the environment and nature converged. Giorgini’s investigations about curved systems as shells and membranes and analysis of octahedral and dodecahedral geometrical shapes are finalized to make buildings using only the strictly required material, just like it happens with the natural world. The research investigates Giorgini's world "post-Euclidean". The article, throughout the archival documents along with a still unpublished autobiography, discovers his pioneering projects full of insights.
