1957/61 Franco Albini
(1905/77) and Franca Helg (1920/89)
It is the only
architectural work of Franco Albini in Rome
“Even
in this building, where the architectural language is enriched by the results
of a more refined technological research, one can read the relationship between
modernity and tradition that is a constant theme in the reflective work of
Franco Albini. La Rinascente is built within the context of the city of Rome
absorbing a series of suggestions of its environment and its colors, and
referring to the historical tradition of the Renaissance palaces and of the
nearby Aurelian Walls” (Annette Tosto)
