Carlo Scarpa's work is shown to convey a deep understanding of the relationship between architecture, nature and human experience. A passion for integrating the ancient and modern, the natural and built, and the sensual qualities of stone, glass and wood, makes the Italian designer ever more necessary today. This urgent and authoritative volume by Prestel Publishing considers the outstanding beauty of Scarpa’s work in a critical landscape. More than 200 photographs provide a thorough visual story of all of his buildings through time.
