RE: IN THE CITY AND TEN TO TWENTY KILOMETERS NORTHWARDS

in Architecture+Design2 years ago

What an interesting tour of architecture in the city of Pula! Of all your featured buildings, my favorite one would probably be the Kazun. This type of ancient dwelling is simply fascinating and offers us a glimpse of the early beginnings of traditional construction methods. Is this type of vernacular design exclusive to your region? 😊

Sort:  

This circular one has some characteristics exclusive to the small region in the southern part of Istra, the peninsula on which I live, but similar traditional drystone buildings can be found in southern Italy and Ireland, always in small, limited areas. Maybe they can be found somewhere else too, I have to explore the Internet a bit more to be sure 🙂For Italy and Ireland, I'm sure.

Gotcha. I guess architectural influences can spread to other unexpected regions too. Thanks for this interesting information. Cheers! 😊

True 🙂Have a great day.
