Homes, offices, museums, and other symbolic

public and private spaces have been

undergoing a process of hybridization that

has led to new ways of living, working,

and travelling. New types of environments

have appeared, capable of rapidly adapting

to the constantly changing needs

of modern living. They need to be versatile

and multifunctional, able to contain

but also to expand and transform themselves,

minimizing the contrasts between inside and

outside, between formal and familiar.
