SUBORDINATION/PV
MODERATELY
RECOGNIZABLE
Photovoltaics waives a
meaningful role, playing a minor
role thanks to a little recognizable
perception obtained from material
control of its peculiarities (color,
size, ...) The integration of PV is
subordinated to the dominant
language of the envelope or has a
very low recognition next to
mimesis.
