The structure is the object of the design, and it takes on a singular expressiveness. The structure is very present, in subtle and sometimes unusual ways.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous studies have been produced on the works of Carlo Scarpa, but none has focused specifically and in depth on the structural design of his projects. Yet, the definition of the structure is specific to each of his projects and to each situation within the project. For Scarpa, each structural decision is a subtle and very precise story that defines the project and gives it its identity.<\/p>\n<p>In the course of this study, structure will be examined in several of Carlo Scarpa&rsquo;s works in order to highlight the significant use he made of it in each project and to demonstrate the poetic element contained within.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Focuses specifically and in depth on the structural designs of Carlo Scarpa&#8217;s architectural designs.<br \/>10 The message of the structure in the works of Carlo Scarpa<br \/>\n12 Presentation of the examples<br \/>\n14 Canova&rsquo;s Gypsotheca<br \/>\nCarlo Scarpa 1955&ndash;1957<br \/>\n42 The Castelvecchio Museum<br \/>\nCarlo Scarpa 1957&ndash;1964, 1966&ndash;1967, 1973&ndash;1975<br \/>\n84 Apartment block, Contr&agrave; del Quartiere, Vicenza<br \/>\nCarlo Scarpa 1975&ndash;1978<br \/>\n98 Banca Popolare di Verona<br \/>\nCarlo Scarpa 1973&ndash;1981<br \/>\n190 The language of materials<br \/>\n226 Message of the structure<br \/>\n228 Appendix<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":49685,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5559],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-49684","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-architecture-landscape-design","7":"author-by-author-bruno-person","8":"publisher-silvana","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Carlo Scarpa - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: Carlo Scarpa, Pages: 224 Pages, Publish Date: 11th May 2026, Author: Bruno Person, ISBN: 9788836656691.
