Abstract
Ignazio Gardella’s Casa alle Zattere (1953-8) in Venice has been recognized by historiography as a cornerstone of post-World War II Italian architecture. The «Ca’ d’Oro of Modern architecture» represents, moreover, a significant point in the evolution of the Venetian urban context, usually repulsive to new graft. Recent interventions in some of the building’s units – carried out under the oversight of the Superintendency – were an opportunity to explore some lesser-known features of this architecture, such as its constructive and material ones, and to ponder on some issues related to the debate of the preservation of Modern architecture.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
