Abstract
This book is intended as a contribution towards giving Carlo Scarpa’s work an adequate place inthe context of 20th century architecture. It does not seek to define him stylistically; rather, it is an endeavor to uncover his multiple connections with his contemporaries and with historical models.
I am using Scarpa’s architecture to examine the principle of stratification in architecture and its complexity while producing a definition that could be applied to other architectures as well. Essays about the different fields of interests that influenced Scarpa in the first chapters will be complemented by a diary of photographs and analytical drawings about three of his projects. [...] Guido Pietropoli who has worked with Carlo Scarpa extensively throughout his career, will enrich the content of this book by sharing more personal information and also by addressing Scarpa’s way of drawing as well.
