Architecture History Project
INVISIBLE CITIES
For this project we had to choose one of the fictional cities from the book Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino, and bring it to life.
The text in the image is a piece of the story of the city of Baucis, and is as follows: "There are three hypotheses about the inhabitants of Baucus. That they hate the earth; that they respect it so much they avoid all contact; that they love it as it was before they existed and with spyglasses and telescopes aimed downward they never tire of examining it, leaf by leaf, stone by stone, ant by ant, contemplating with fascination their own absence."
I chose this city because I found it a very beautiful story and chose to believe in the third hypothesis of the inhabitants of Baucis.
