Giuseppe Terragni : His War, His End, Paperback / softback Book

Giuseppe Terragni : His War, His End Paperback / softback

Edited by Attilio Terragni

Paperback / softback

Description

Giuseppe Terragni, an influential proponent of modernism in Italian architecture and design in the 1920s and 1930s, translated the visual vocabulary of Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe into what became known as the Rationalist School of Architecture.

This monograph covers his later years (he died in 1943), with a focus on the war and his devastating experience as a soldier.

It includes some notable projects from the 1930s like the Casa del Fascio in Como, and the designs for an unrealised final project for a cathedral that he did in the days before his death.

The book is illustrated with historical photographs and includes letters Terragni wrote from the front.
