Carlo Scarpa. An Architectural Guide

Carlo Scarpa. An Architectural Guide by Los, Sergio. paperback edition. ISBN: 9788877431455.

This new critical guidebook, written and organised by Sergio Los, one of the leading scholars of Scarpas work, certainly stands out as the indispensible travelling companion (whether that travel is physical or done from an armchair) for those setting out to explore the city. The introductory essay, which provides a critical analysis of the essential features of Scarpas approach to architecture, is followed by a complete catalogue of the buildings and projects that Carlo Scarpa actually built, alongwith the fundamental information required to understand their history, and to tour them as they now stand, as well as an inventory of Scapras unbuilt projects.
