Interni Café at Cersaie

Milan-based architect Cino Zucchi, founder of the studio CZA Cino Zucchi Architetti, converses with Gilda Bojardi, Editor of Interni Magazine, on the theme of Ceramic identity: surfaces and architectural design. The conversation focuses on the relationship between the cladding of a new building and the environmental context. In particular, ceramic materials and brick, used by Zucchi in many recent projects for their aesthetic and ecosustainable qualities.

According to Zucchi, contemporary architecture often intervenes in historically stratified places, with buildings originally constructed for a context very different from the present one. The job of architecture is thus to interpret the necessities of the present while respecting the multiplicity of styles with which it establishes a dialogue.
