Pier Luigi Nervi
€18.00
VAT included
The seventh volume of the Piccoli MAXXI series – the sixth published with RAUM Italic – is dedicated to the brilliant and multifaceted figure of Pier Luigi Nervi.
A passionate observer of the natural world, an excellent student, an inventor and designer, and later a pioneer in the use of reinforced concrete in Italy, Pier Luigi remains one of the most renowned figures in the world of architecture. The book retraces his story by presenting his most famous works: stadiums, cathedrals, skyscrapers, industrial buildings, and private residences—an entire universe of extraordinary projects designed to inspire curious girls and boys.
An illustrated glossary at the end of the book helps explain the more technical terms used in the text, while an activity inspired by Rome’s Palazzetto dello Sport invites young readers to recreate with their own bodies some of the most fascinating challenges of architectural design.
