Idealmente, il "sopralluogo negli stu<strong>di</strong> " <strong>di</strong> architetti e designer dovrebbe farparte del corso <strong>di</strong> formazione <strong>di</strong><br />

chi si sta avviando al progetto. Luoghi <strong>di</strong> pensiero, d ' <strong>in</strong>venzione, <strong>di</strong> organizzazione mentale e spaziale, gli<br />

stu<strong>di</strong> sono lo scenario tangibile <strong>di</strong> un metodo, la costruzione attenta della macch<strong>in</strong>a operativa grazie a cui lo<br />

sforzo creativo prende forma e viene messo <strong>in</strong> rete. Sono casa e museo, cl<strong>in</strong>ica e cuc<strong>in</strong>a. Sono il deposito caotico o<br />

ord<strong>in</strong>atissimo dove l'accumulo delle idee, <strong>di</strong>ventate esperienza, trova collocazione. Per ch: i entra, un cor = tocirc2.r.ito,<br />

on design: a visit to the Milan practice of <strong>Paolo</strong> <strong>Rizzatto</strong>, a glance BEYOND THE RED CURTAIN. Ideally, "<br />

field trips" to the practices of architects and designers should be an <strong>in</strong>tegral part of all design tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

courses. As places of thought, <strong>in</strong>vention and mental and spatial organisation, practices are the tangible<br />

expression of a method, the careful construction of the operational mach<strong>in</strong>e through which creative force<br />

takes on form and becomes a system. They are home and museum, cl<strong>in</strong>ic and kitchen. Chaotic or carefully<br />

ordered storerooms where ideas, hav<strong>in</strong>g become experiences, accumulate. As you walk <strong>in</strong>, you short<br />

architecture cannot exist without light". Hav<strong>in</strong>g acquired this space for himself and his work, <strong>Rizzatto</strong> -a<br />

master of <strong>in</strong>novation with a soft spot for the past - had no doubt about want<strong>in</strong>g to keep its orig<strong>in</strong>al<br />

character. This is a module <strong>in</strong> a typical odd factory build<strong>in</strong>g, which had latterly also been occupied by a<br />

design school and quite a few other designers, and by its very nature bare and rational. The sawtoothed<br />

roof structure, with its lightweight, taut metal gridwork, an brick elements, has been reta<strong>in</strong>ed,<br />

with just a few ad<strong>di</strong>tions surgically and <strong>in</strong>visibly grafted on where necessary. Rizatto carefully and<br />

ju<strong>di</strong>ciously decided that the fullness of the <strong>in</strong>terior space should be preserved, so there are no<br />

partitions; <strong>in</strong>stead he has punctuated it (with recesses, bookcases) and highlighted it (with the<br />

perspective run of the floorboards and, on the platform, the work table that protrudes out over the<br />

space). The construction of a side "sp<strong>in</strong>e” keeps all the utilities neatly <strong>in</strong> a s<strong>in</strong>gle longitud<strong>in</strong>al volume<br />

that also serves as the support for the platform area. As a result the space appears<br />

<strong>in</strong>tact yet enhanced, uncluttered yet fully equipped, restra<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

yet visually strik<strong>in</strong>g. Highly <strong>in</strong>ventive: with than great sense<br />

of the theatrical he has <strong>di</strong>splayed on various other occasions<br />

<strong>in</strong> his <strong>in</strong>terior design work(2), Rizatto creates a sense of eager<br />

anticipation by plac<strong>in</strong>g a red curta<strong>in</strong> at the entrance. The<br />

visual tension cont<strong>in</strong>ues through <strong>in</strong>to the various work areas (<br />

the <strong>in</strong>dependent but <strong>in</strong>teract<strong>in</strong>g micro-environments) and<br />

lamps, "archetypes and prototypes" that hand, stand or reach out <strong>in</strong>to space: "The development of my relationship<br />
