Leopold Banchini：项目作为被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录的锡拉库萨 – 潘塔利卡遗址的一部分，我们需要在场地设计一个临时微型建筑，潘塔利卡墓地（la necropoli di Pantalica）——公元前一千年在岩石上凿出的超过 4000 个洞穴，但人们对关于在阿纳波河沿岸生活并安葬逝者知之甚少，几乎没有发现平民建筑的痕迹，我们只能推测山谷的居民使用轻型建筑技术和当地有机材料来建造他们的家园。

这个临时装置是一个推测性的微型建筑，它更多地是对史前文明鲜为人知的建筑景观进行思考，而非其已知的墓地。它探索了建筑和宇宙观如何从特定的景观中产生，与当地的地形和资源相协调。呼应了早期住宅建筑的临时性，并基于本土和当代的建筑方法，生成了多样且虚构的故事，有意与考古学和科学研究或严格的时间线保持距离。

Leopold Banchini：Little is known about the people who lived and buried their dead along the Anapo river.Pantalica – a complex of over 4000 thumbs carved in the rocks a millennium BC – doesn’t tell us much about the way the living found shelter. Since very few traces of commoners’ architecture has been found, we can only imagine that the valley’s inhabitants used light construction technics and local organic materials to build their homes.

Part of the Syracusa-Pantalica UNESCO world heritage site listing, Asympta is a speculative micro architecture reflecting on the mostly unknown architectural landscape of the prehistoric civilisation rather than on its known necropolis. It explores how architectures and cosmologies might emerge from a specific landscape, attuned to its topography and resources. The temporary installation, echoing the provisional qualities of early domestic architecture, generates diverse and fictional narratives based on vernacular as much as on contemporary construction methods, purposefully distancing itself from archaeological and scientific research or from strict timelines.

该建筑使用了附近埃特纳火山的熔岩石、经火烤密封的当地木材、皮埃特拉佩切石灰岩、青铜和羊毛毡，为休息和沉思提供了一个遮蔽的空间。其双渐近线的形状既呼应了主宰西西里岛东部景观的火山锥，也呼应了附近自古以来开采石料的石灰岩矿坑的挖掘形状。

该开放结构有意对拉吉耶的原始小屋这一浪漫化的神话提出质疑，体现了与这片丰富景观的亲近、适应和相互关系。

Using lava stone from the nearby Etna volcano, local wood sealed by fire, Pietra Pece limestone, bronze and sheep wool felt, the structure offers a shaded space for reunion and reflection. The double asymptotic shape echoes both the cone of the volcano dominating the landscape of eastern Sicily and the excavation shape of the nearby latomie where stone was extracted since ancient times. Purposefully questioning the romanticised myth of Laugier’s Primitive Hut, the open structure speaks of proximity, adaptability and reciprocity towards this rich landscape.
