This lecture explores the relationship between architecture and food, focusing on the architectural articulation of food production and storage through concrete examples of typologies and built projects. It delves into the historical evolution of architectural strategies in food-related spaces, from ancient fortresses to modern urban logistics. The presentation also discusses the division of labor at building sites and the importance of drawing in architectural design, highlighting the impact of artillery on modern design. Additionally, it covers the rise of orthogonal projections and coordinated drawings, emphasizing the necessity of 'projects' and the spirit of capitalist entrepreneurialism.
