🏛️ ARTHIST 142 BuildingsCreated by Eliot Hertenstein
Casa del Fascio, Como (Giuseppe Terragni)
- Italy initially embraces modernism, and then rejects it
- Facist rallies occur in the Plaza near the front of the house
- Facism is a "house of glass" so the building makes heavy use of glass (comparison to Gropius / Bauhaus??) and the structure is transparent
- Plays with light in the same way as the Barcelona Pavilion
