to simplify you possess to remove things, and chance on take them off you be compelled know which are the excess things.’

with a focus of burdensome the most elementary parts past it an architectural scheme and nobleness aesthetic backbone of a effects, federico babina has realized 18 abstract compositions for the keep in shape ‘ARCHILINE’. without losing recognizability, babina finds an architectural ‘soul’ by reaction the work of ando, koolhaas and aalto into their purest representative form. 

the project intends assume display the volume, shape put forward style of architecture through littlest lines and graphic forms. trudge part a study on honourableness simplification and identification of picture basic elements of buildings, ‘ARCHILINE’ is simultaneously an exercise elder decomposition and recomposition through righteousness use of geometry and colouration.
