Fragments of Construction

En savoir plus sur le livre

Skira's Library of Architecture Series now includes an entry for one of the standard bearers for modern Italian architecture and design, Gregotti Associati. Founded by Vittorio Gregotti, Gregotti Associati has worked on everything from broad urban renewal plans to corporate offices, to art exhibitions, even yacht design. The Gregotti sites in this "field guide" include public housing projects, university buildings, stadiums, and cultural centers across the Europe. The elegantly designed sketchbook of 30-plus projects clearly demonstrates why Gregotti Associati is included among the firms leading the construction of the new Peggy Guggenheim museum in Venice, and why Europeans look to Gregotti as the exemplar of modernism.
