Description

Winner of the 1990 Pritzker Architecture Prize, Italian architect and theorist Aldo Rossi (1931–97) gained international renown for his imaginative and starkly beautiful designs. Rossi's writings, drawings, and buildings—notable for using such simple forms as cones, cylinders, prisms, and cubes—are at once bold yet ordinary, original without being novel, simple in appearance but sophisticated in content and meaning. With 262 photographs, sketches, drawings, watercolors, and collages—many filling the page and most in color—this book focuses on his drawings, which both informed his work and explained his concepts. It includes introductory essays, a biography, a chronology of Rossi's projects, and bibliography.
