Federico Delrosso Architects: Pushing the Boundaries
Porzia Bergamasco
The works by the architect and designer Federico Delrosso (1964) constantly reflect a passing of the torch between past and present that, far from being a nostalgic or derivative operation, makes everything topical. His career as a designer clearly reflects the teaching of modernists – especially Gio Ponti, Ernesto Nathan Rogers and Le Corbusier, who envisaged the figure of the architect as a designer of things ranging from “the spoon to the city”, and who constantly stressed the idea of the exploration of space, later taken up by Richard Meier. This first monograph completes the cycle of architectural plans for private and commercial buildings, interior décor and design projects Delrosso has created over the past twenty years.
