cosmetics industry research center whose design was strongly
influenced by the surrounding landscape that is itself treated
as an architectural element. The research center is analyzed
through text, a large number of images, numerous technical
drawings, and construction details with relative legends
outlining the construction system. The course provides a
comprehensive view of the design measures taken to produce a
building heavily influenced by its natural setting. Learning
