The Slum Reserve

The SLUM RESERVE project was born following my studies on some suburbs of world megalopolises, their illegal neighborhoods and the aesthetic results that characterize them.

The common tendency in these cities is to eradicate, whenever possible, spontaneous and informal building agglomerations (or at least move them away from the center of the city) whether they are of illegal or cultural nature, as if their absence from the center would determine a better parameter of the city’s liveability.
