I have recently become a fan of Carlo Scarpa’s work. This stair set has been of interest to me for few weeks now, partly because i couldn’t get any images of it. Wonderful detailing shows the amount thinking which went into it.
Other curious elements of his buildings can also be analysed for hours. Beautiful work.
“The other side shows the slab relationship. The tiles here are blue symbolising water, the display floors are always the white tiles seen above.” (via Venetian Matters: Negozio Olivetti reopens: a Carlo Scarpa Jewel)
