The World of Aldo Rossi

More about the book

I wanted to come to terms with the work of Aldo Rossi, with his extraordinary ability to get to the crux of problems, to the nucleus of every project theme, transforming it into a question that closely pertained to his life. There are two words in his writings – rational and exalted – that made me understand the coexistence of two planes of discourse on the rational plane based on principles, and the analogical plane based on the desire for an imagined world.
