Luca Moretto: Educational Architecture

Celebrated architect Luca Moretto's beginnings were keenly dictated by his liking of classical form and style and his experimentations with these. But here the comparison stops. Moretto's futuristic yet functional urban designs, starting with the rebuilding of Crocetta university hall of residence, have led to a string of commissions in which he "works outside the lines". The aim of this architect's work always being to bring buildings up to a standard while giving them back their dignity and the urban presence that would also show off their communicative value. Moretto accompanies his plans with watercolour paintings to better demonstrate the finished article, many of which are included in this volume. This book has an Italian/English bilingual text.
