Renovation of the Trinity College

摘要

The project starts with its heritage, with the built understood as a value, the legacy of a succession of particular times. We differentiate between the "eternal" value of the project's masses -the compressive strength of the great walls and domes一 and the "ephemeral" character of tensile structures which constructive systems traditionally made of wood. The project was developed following this understanding of passing time, preserving the value of the "eternal" and proposing a new "ephemeral".A structure made of steel, separate and flooded with light, suggests a new contemporaneity.
