INTRODUCING THE NEW HOMES SERIES

The necessity for this series is to be found in the following consideration: that the discourse of the architectural project is today of an extreme solitude. This discourse is spoken, perhaps, by thousands of architects (who knows?), but warranted by no one; it is completely forsaken by any discourse on constructed space: ignored, disparaged or derided, severed not only from authority but also from the mechanisms of authority (universities, publishing, tenders). The design language of recent years has been dragged into the digression of the untimely and exiled from all forms of frequentation with the most qualified discourses on contemporary architecture. We feel there is no recourse but to become the site of an affirmation, to again assert the central importance of the project. That affirmation is, in short, the subject of this series of publications.

ABOUT THE NEW DIVISARE BOOKS
The new divisare books are small format pocket-book size, in limited editions of 200 copies, high-resolution digital printed, bound, with a hardcover, finished in fine English paper. Titles on the cover are silver foil hot stamped. We attach great importance to the tactile quality of the book as an object as well as, of course, its contents. Unlike the web that runs fast and vanishes faster, leaving no trace, Our books have the aim of lasting in time. The idea is simple: printed paper instead of pixels; we just want to invite you to get away from the screens of your devices for a moment, to sit back in a favorite armchair and enjoy a good read, in the old fashioned way.

EXCLUSIVELY FROM THE DIVISARE BOOKS STORE

JOIN US IN TAKING A STAND AGAINST THE SHORT ATTENTION ARCHITECTURE MEDIA

Divisare is the result of an effort of selection and classification of contemporary architecture conducted for over twenty years. Patient work, done with care, image after image, project after project, to offer you the ideal tool with which to organize your knowledge of contemporary architecture. Instead of a quick, distracted web, we want a slow, attentive one. Instead of hastily perused information, we prefer knowledge calmly absorbed. This is why Divisare is a place to perceive architecture slowly, without distractions.
No click — like — tweet — share, no advertising, banners, pop-ups. Just architecture, no more and no less.
