False Mirror Office As a matter of fact, false mirror office mis-represents Architecture

False Mirror Office is a collective of architects, outcome of a fortunate encounter between six professionals sharing the Genoa Polytechnic School as common background. Each member has experienced projects of all scales working in international renowned architecture firms, developing different perspectives and complementary skills that reflect in their work. Having elected Europan as our test grou

nd, we set our primary goal in the disclosure of the ambiguity of the almost ubiquitous and overwhelming concept of Sustainability. This solution for Nyhavna is the result of a discussion about contemporary approach to historic cities, typology and social strategies.

Many thanks to GAMeC - Galleria d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea di Bergamo and Confindustria Bergamo for the invitation to redesign the square between the Confindustria HQ and Jean Nouvel's Kilometro Rosso, in view of Bergamo and Brescia Italian Capital of Culture 2023. Congratulations to Salottobuono for the winning proposal.

The square in front of the headquarters of Confindustria Bergamo looks today like an anonymous and inhospitable place. Reduced to a paved surface exposed to all kinds of inclement weather, from the beating sun of the Po Valley to the windy currents generated by the configuration of the built-up area to the noise pollution shielded only by the diaphragm of the Kilometro Rosso, this place appears to the visitor as a deserted and desolate heath, a square/desert that shuns the nature on which it was once built.

And it is precisely against the image of this metaphorical desert that False Mirror Office imagines here the mirage of a fantastic, mysterious and ambivalent oasis.
The mirage offers Confindustria a place for shelter, encounter and contemplation, an artificial and welcoming nature …

Exhibition Opening 04 NOV 2022 h 6.30 pm (via Eustachi 40, Milano) OTIARIUM : the celebration of domestic rites. false mirror office VS Andrea Cucchi ()

The rediscovery of the Roman Lararium represents a pivotal moment within the research that false mirror office is conducting on the mutations of domestic rites.
"Otiarium, Lararium for domestic otium is an object that underlines the importance of finding a physical space for celebrating domesticity, as that dimension ‘other’ than the productive environment which, so increasingly immaterial and ubiquitous, contaminates the dwelling today.
The “Otiarii" - result of the unprecedented collaboration of false mirror office and Andrea Cucchi - are eloquent devices through whose activation visitors turn into celebrants of a ritual, resuming five counteractions by which otium can be celebrated.
The new domestic landscape is shaped as the parody of a world that looks with surprise and admiration at its objects of consumption and finds comfort in re-establishing a contact of intimate sacredness with them.
Genuflect to believe.
