One of the leading Italian architects Stefano Boeri spoke with us in his Milan office — Milano Arch Week curator, designer of multiple Verticle Forests all around the world, Boeri is also a Professor at one of the best Europian architecture schools Politecnico di Milano.
In this interview, the architect told ArchDaily about how different every Vertical Forest is, what kind of problems can success lead to and how the working process in architecture is divided into design and research.
When you work as a researcher, you have to enlarge your knowledge, include all the possible information. But when you act as a designer, you have to totally change the approach, you have to be selective, exclude possibilities and arrive to one unique physical configuration.
