Part I

LINEAR STAIRCASE STRUCTURE

Brion Cemetery Treviso, Italy 1978 Carlo Scarpa

Despite the extremely geometric and rigid surface of this building, the linear pattern gives the idea of movement both visual and physical in the case of plants.

The linear staircase structure of this fragment generates paths on different levels where plants like climbing plants can develop. The visual and physical movement also allows mix and connection between variation of climbing plants creating micro biodiversity.
