Ivano Gianola

Trama

"Ivano Gianola is one of the most important exponents of the so-called Ticino School. This developed in the early 1970s as a loose association of architects who thought in related ways." "What made Gianola's buildings different from others of the Ticino School from the outset was the subtle way they were bound into their context, and their precise craftsmanship. The latter meant that building after building, especially in terms of interior finish and the coherence of all the details, became real total works of art. So it is hardly surprising that Gianola created the most beautiful living spaces in Ticino, in the best Arts-and-Crafts tradition." "But Gianola's greatest success so far was winning an international competition for redesigning the extensive site around the ruins of the former "Palace" luxury hotel in Lugano." "This first publication of the complete works of Gianola gives the latest of the leading protagonists of the Ticino school a monograph of his own."--Jacket.
