Vico Magistretti (1920–2006) was an Italian architect, who was also active as an industrial designer, furniture designer, and academic. As a collaborator of humanist architect Ernesto Nathan Rogers, one of Magistretti's first projects was the "poetic" round church in the experimental Milan neighbourhood of QT8. He later designed mass-produced appliances and furniture for companies such as Cassina S.p.A., Artemide, and Oluce. This book gives a retrospective of some of the most important works of post-war Italian design. The text and catalogue are by Vanni Pasca who also interviewed Magistretti for this book. Paperback, fine copy with small with creases in the cover - front and back (see photos). 126 pages. Illustrated with drawings and photographs of Magistretti's designs and buildings, many in colour.
