The work of Carlo Scarpa (1906-1978) has challenged, and continues to challenge, received ideas about modern architecture. Several books have been published on his work, but none has approached the breadth and depth of this monograph.

This book examines Scarpa's many achievements, including works for the Canova Museum, the Castelvecchio Museum and the Brion Cemetery, among others. It offers in-depth 'tours' of a selection of Scarpa's key projects, embracing Scarpa's approach to experience-based design, and features architectural sketches and plans, as well as a comprehensive list of completed and unfinished works.
