Meeting with Italian architect Italo Rota

2013,12.03, the famous Italian architect Italo Rota came to our school and gave a lecture for the students.

Italo Rota was born in Milan and graduated in Architecture from the Milan Polytechnic. In 1980 he collaborated with Aulenti and Castiglioni on the designs that won the contest for

Interior Design held by the Musée d'Orsay and the Centre Beaubourg in Paris. In 1990 he initiated the planning of the Centre for Post-Graduate Studies at Columbia University. His return to Italy - since 1996 he has been living in Milan - marked the beginning of a highly creative phase including projects that ranged from museum installations and the Maison Cavalli (the showroom cafés in Miami, Milan and Moscow) to a series of interest architecture, fashion and design enthusiasts.

 

 

 

In the lecture, he talked about the new materials and the new energy being used in the architecture, pointed out that architecture should grow with the natural and environment. In his works, he is also trying to find a way to combine the old architecture and modern architecture, trying to show the historical value and modern design ideas in his works at the same time.
