About the architect-:

 Carlo Scarpa (June 2nd, 1906 - November 28th, 1978) was an Italian architect and designer
heavily influenced by the history of Venetian culture, materials and landscape

 in 1926 obtained his diploma of Professor in Architectural Drawing at the Royal Academy of
Fine Art in Venice. He then began his career at the Royal Superior Institute of Architecture of
Venice

 He possessed an exceptional understanding of raw materials, and from 1933 to 1947, was
artistic director of Venini - one of the most prominent producers of Venetian glass before he
began the pursuit of his career as an architect

Design Philosophy-:
 Scarpa's architecture manages to respect the old and historic while simultaneously
introducing new and modern design details.

 In this respect his work is deeply sensitive to the changes of time, all taking shape in a
careful selection and combination of materials.

 Scarpa ending up by designing works meant to elude time, favouring the vivid colours of the
past above the dull grey of the future

 In his works, architectural thinking combines with the acquisition of increasingly refined
techniques and distills the secrets of form into design. It is this mixture that is responsible
for the fragmentary nature of his achievements.

 Scarpa's designs are, in fact, mostly provisional arrangements and the involuntary memory
that emerges in his drawings points continually back to the past.
  The incompleteness that is the typical mode of his research reveals his concept of the work
in relation to time.

Ideology and quotes-:

“If the architecture is any good, a person who looks and listens will feel its good effects without
noticing.”
