The volume does not deal with the technical-manualistic aspects of construction nor the methodological-disciplinary issues. Instead it highlights the numerous spatial effects of the phases of construction, captured by photography, at random and over a period of time.
It is also the chronicle of the issues faced by an architect before the
concreteness of the building. A further subject dealt with will be the continuous architectural modifications to the building and chequered uses, inevitably bound up with its evolution in time.
