The recognition of founding values in the modern interior

The restoration and adaptative re-use of modern interiors require awareness of the particular role that has the interior space and, in it, the relationship between space and furnishings in the idea of modern architecture. This has meant the interior design not only as a defining element of detail or furniture, but as a place of primary genesis of the architecture, the design of which starts from the inside to define volumes, prospects and relations with neighboring areas. Programmatically modern architecture has placed the recognition and analysis of the needs, not only primary, but also cultural and existential at the base of the design action. Compared to the traditional idea of interior space through "areas", understood as spatial units defined by fixed margins, albeit interconnected in different ways, the architecture is divided into modernity by "fields", or chunks of space, which coagulate around actions or movements, or around the desire to build a relationship between the people, and therefore defined by the equipment of furniture, margins even virtual or labile, around which are gathering fixed margins of construction, acquiring and managing the way relationship between inside and outside. The void becomes the raison d'être of the full. The problem of interior space is therefore a key to understanding the meaning of modern architecture. Le Corbusier's work around the concept of space of the house, for example, could not regardless of the research on the role of furniture: the projects of the twenties may not be fully understood unless also investigating his work on furniture, through the projects presented in 1925 and in 1928; it is clearly the desire to entrust to the furnishings and their relationship a generative role in the architectural space and to make them able to live in the middle of the empty space. Awareness of the role of the relationship between furniture and interior spaces in the construction of the sense of modern architecture is essential to define strategies useful for its reuse. Issues relating to language are very important, however, is especially this relationship a crucial point at which you need to compare any conservation work or adaptation to new behaviors to make legible the original sense of the project. Some examples of architectures not transformed into museums but still inhabited, allows to analyze where and in what resides greater the sense of those works, and consequently the impact of their reuse.
