/be·stià·rio/

A volume written in the Middle Ages containing descriptions of real and imaginary animals, intended to teach morals and to entertain.

Our Bestiario is an ongoing project of investigation and research.

We ask architects to draw the first animal they think about. Point black. 

​

No premeditation or niceties allowed, just an idea, a paper and a pen.
