Torre Velasca
BBPR Architectural Studio (G. Banfi + L. Belgiojoso + E. Peressutti + E. N. Rogers)
- Outline
- This is a high-rise Italian postwar modernist building that emphasizes continuity with the historical and cultural context of the region. The residential floors are placed on top of the smaller office floors, and the concrete braces supporting the exterior columns give the viewer a sense of medieval mechanical tension.
