Abstract

Architecture is the art of planning and organizing of every detail from micro scale to macro scale. It is a process where all the knowledge is filtered into a pot through reason, logic and creativity, kneaded and formed. It is behaving warily and responsibly when finding the best solution in the right place using the right material. You would observe the result of this aware and responsible approach and the importance of details to reach the architectural solution when you walk through the buildings of the famous Italian architect CARLO SCARPA. Door, windows, stairs… in each and every detail there is a characteristics of being a part of "the whole". You would recognize that "the stairs" of Scarpa are specially designed and detailed to suit their location and fullfill their purpose. Besides, "the stair" is a plastic piece of art for the "master". Scarpa's another characteristic is his sensitive approach to his "special first tread" These first treads vary to meet the characteristics of each stair enhancing its plasticity. They are stimulative, collective and directive.
