5 hrs confidence: architettura avveneristica/d'avanguardia
Explanation:
Grazie al Link trovato da Barbara, credo proprio che in questo contesto si voglia sottolineare l'aspetto avveneristico!
Un'altra soluzione potrebbe essere 'un'icona dell'architettura', che si può riferire, e all'architetto, e al progetto avveneristico.
In italiano risulta impossibile trasporre il gioco di parole tra le 'icone dell'architettura' e le 'star famose'. In alcuni contesti (vedi II link) sarebbe limitativo tradurre solo poi con 'architettura degli archistar'.
In ITALIANO - ARCHISTAR sa di calco...
1. L'etimologia di archi- (dal gr. ἀρχι-, dal tema di ἄρχω «essere a capo») cozza con 'star' poiché è un rafforzativo pleonastico.
2. In italiano esiste poi anche una parola simile 'archistrïato' , anche se di dominio scientifico ('parte del corpo striato nel cervello dei vertrebati, che compare per prima nella filogenesi')
(vedi TRECCANI http://www.treccani.it/vocabolario/archistriato)
3. Infine non si conserva l'ordine NATURALE dell'italiano Determinato+Determinante, tipo 'capo+stazione', per intendersi.
"Starchitect is a recent neologism used to describe architects whose celebrity and critical acclaim have transformed them into idols of the architecture world and may even have given them some degree of fame amongst the general public. Celebrity status is generally associated with *AVANT-GARDIST NOVELTY*. Developers around the world have proven eager to sign up "top talent" (starchitects) in hopes of convincing reluctant municipalities to approve large developments, of obtaining financing or of increasing the value of their buildings. A key characteristic is that the architect's designs are almost always iconic and highly visible within the site or context. As the status is dependent on current visibility in the media, fading media status implies that architects lose "starchitect" status - hence a list can be drawn up of former "starchitects".
