A blog for an architect is clearly evident from the stasis of these pages. As I have written many times* * * *, a blog for an architect is an extension of the drafting table, a place to jot down ideas, reflect on those of others, and initiate dialogues with other architects, writers, photographers, artists, and commentators. Being a blog without an editorial team, the frequency of articles/posts depends on the author's available time, both physical and mental.
Wilfing Architettura was also created with the intent to explore the change in architectural writing from paper to digital. I have questioned the protagonists of this period not to 'taxonomize' or 'almanac,' nor to 'prove a thesis' on a process, but to layer history by telling it as it happened. The silence of Wilfing Architettura in recent years was caused by the physical move from Leonforte, a small town in the province of Enna, to an almost metropolitan city like Milan. Recreating an architectural studio and settling in was not simple, but now that I have 'a room of my own,' I can make my drafting table public again.
So, where were we?
After almost eight years, resuming these pages means reconnecting with another world, as the blog now seems like computer archaeology, at least in the way it was used in its most active years.
