Italy: Contemporary Domestic Landscapes 1945-2000

Quick Overview

Home design and construction in Italy shifted after World War II from a base of craftsman builders to medium-size industrial production - a fundamental social change that was directed both by an active base of architectural theory and the culture of domestic life. Italy's design technologies extended the theory and practice of domestic architecture from its artisan characteristics to technologic visions - without breaking the social bond that architecture provides in Italy. Italy, unlike other countries, successfully redefined its "culture of living". The largest part of the collection is devoted to issues of design, production, and building, including Beppe Finezzi's "Living Between Art and Architecture" and Frida Doveil's "New Materials and New User Values For the Home". Other essays include "The Landscape of Daily Life" (Francesca Picchi), "Architecture of Interiors 1945-2000" (Giampiero Bosoni), "A Homeless Country (Andrea Branzi), "Machines to Make Home" (Vittorio Marchis), "Italian Design" (Paola Antonelli).
