This journey into Italian architecture is an ongoing enquiry into the diverse project typologies being currently developed—the degree of their innovation and the way they mesh with technical requirements. The book focuses on how the many aspects of Italian architecture developed by Italian architects working in Italy today deal with the layers of building history that have gone before. The works selected have been taken from the "Panorama Italiano" section on www.theplan.it and include urban and rural residences, public and cultural buildings, office and commercial blocks, social housing, and broader urban planning projects. All testify to the vitality of Italian architecture today.
