Aldo Rossi, born in Milan in 1931 and sadly passing away in 1997, is widely regarded as the preeminent Italian architect of the latter half of the 20th century. His architectural journey began alongside Gardella and Zanuso. With a penchant for abstraction, reduction, and brevity, Rossi's distinctive style employed stark primary shapes, geometric patterns, and evocative silence, resulting in some of the most profoundly poetic architectural and design accomplishments of his era.
