Carlo Scarpa and Carlo Maschietto represent a remarkable dialogue between visionary architecture and structural intuition. Scarpa was renowned for his poetic approach to spatial composition, materials, craftsmanship and detail. Maschietto was a long-time collaborator of Scarpa; he was a master engineer whose technical precision and creativity helped translate Scarpa's complex designs into a built reality. In five chapters and based on several of Scarpa’s key buildings, the book investigates different approaches to structural design and its formal expression. The authors – an architect and an engineer – mirror the cooperation of Scarpa and Maschietto.

  • Architectural-structural analysis of four of Scarpa's signature works: Castelvecchio, the Ottolenghi residence, Venezuela Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, and Brion Memorial
  • Attractive photography and rarely published drawings
  • Scarpa was one of the most influential Italian architects of the 20th century
