1. Introduction

• Italian architect and theorist.

• He was the leading exponent of neo-rationalism.

• Though comparatively few of his designs have been built, but his theories on

the nature of design formed an important part of contemporary architectural

debate – offering an alternative to the technological and functional emphasis

of modernism.

• His designs were highly original, and often characterized both by bare

geometrical forms such as cubes and cylinders, and also by traditional

features of Italian architecture such as arcades and galleries.

• Words as well as drawings and buildings have distinguished him as one of

the great architects. As a master draftsman, steeped in the tradition of Italian

art and architecture, Rossi's sketches and renderings of buildings have often

achieved international recognition long before being built.

•Ada Louise Huxtable, architectural critic and Pritzker juror has described

Rossi as "a poet who happens to be an architect."

• The designer-according to him-combines the building

blocks of the task in hand in accordance with the logical

rules of order, as if from a building set of memories.

Quartier Schützenstrasse,Berlin, Germany

5. Case studies

• Aldo Rossi has used the historical urban structure of the

division of land into small plots as his concept for Quartier

Schützenstrasse.

• The individualized houses signal individual plots but the

total number of facades exceeds the number of houses

standing independently of each other.

• Two of the buildings are reserved exclusively for

residential apartments the rest provide for a mixture of

residential and commercial use.
