Summary:

Giuseppe Pizzigoni, Architekt der klassischen und Nachkriegsmoderne in Norditalien, verdankt seinen Ruf seinen Verbindungen zur Novecento-Bewegung, der Unabhängigkeit vom Faschismus und seinem Interesse an innovativen Wohngrundrissen. Anhand von Neuzeichnungen der Pläne von ca. 60 ausgeführten Bauten werden die entwurflichen Leistungen systematisch analysiert, ergänzt um historischen Hintergrund, Werkverzeichnis und aktuelle Fotodokumentation.

Giuseppe Pizzigoni, architect of classical and postwar modernism in northern Italy, owes his reputation to his connections with the Novecento movement, his independence from fascism, and his interest in innovative residential floor plans. Using redrawn plans of some 60 realized buildings, the design achievements are systematically analyzed, supplemented by explanations on the historical background, a systematic catalog, and up-to-date photographic documentation.
