Some interesting works we have found.

Cedric Price: Bat Hat, Battersea/GB, 1984

 

 

Bat Hat:

Shadows - Shade - Shelter

In his project for the conversion of the Battersea Power Station Cedric Price removes everything but the very top of the building to maintain its shape.

Aurelio Galfetti: Castelgrande-Bellinzona/CH, 1983-1985

 

This is a section of the stairwell and the elevator.

see archINFORM for more facts about this building

 

The visitors of the Castelgrande first have to enter some sort of tunnel that gets more and more narrow as you step inside.
At the bottom of the stairwell you can already see the sky through a hole very high above you.
