ACPV ARCHITECTS, founded by Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel in 2000, is today one of Italy’s leading architecture firms. This volume explores the studio’s most significant projects around the world through the photographic lens of Carlo Valsecchi: from the Ermenegildo Zegna district in Milan to Brooktorkai 22 in Hamburg, from the road interchange bridge built for Expo Milano 2015 to Treasure Garden in Taiwan, from the Technogym Village in Cesena to Palazzo Aporti in Milan, from the Edel Headquarters in Hamburg to Symbiosis in Milan, all the way to the La Bella Vita complex in Taiwan. Each architectural project is examined in two parts. The first presents a series of sharp, essential portraits that reveal the form, presence, and expression of the buildings. The second retraces the sequence of events, circumstances, and conditions that led to their creation.

Low cost design Book – Silvana Editoriale
€35.00[Author: Daniele Pario Perra]
