Transparency and permeation in modular architectural compositions
Abstract
Buildings with a clear modular structure (in terms of composition and construction) should also be characterized by a clear functional layout, which seems particularly important for public utility buildings. The role of light in the correct interpretation of functions (also through the use of archetypes symbols in sequences of interior spaces) by users of such buildings, combined with the impact of more or less desired acoustic effects in historic buildings and contemporary implementations using classical and new means of expression, is the main subject of this article, explored and described from first-hand observation and available literature.

The Yearbook only accepts materials for publication that are free of all conflicts of interest, and that in no way involve conflicts over authorship, copyright, etc. The Editors will take action against any cases of plagiarizing, ghostwriting1, guest/honorary authorship2, etc. Where co-authored work is concerned, the Author listed first is expected to take responsibility for the submission, and is required to make clear the contributions of all of the Co-Authors involved. In the event of the publication owing its existence to funding dedicated to this purpose, this fact should be made clear: e.g. in any note of thanks/acknowledgement, or in a footnote, etc. Explicit notification should be given of any form of reprinting, with the appropriate evidence of permission to publish being furnished as required. Any impropriety on the part of Authors/Reviewers risks exposing them to appropriate responses from the relevant institutions.
