INCOMPIUTO: The Birth of a Style returns in a new, expanded and updated edition.
Almost ten years after its first publication, Incompiuto – defined by the authors as “the most important Italian architectural style from the post-war period to the present day” – has taken on growing cultural significance in the debate on the country’s architectural landscape. The result of over fifteen years of field research, the volume represents the first and only systematic investigation into a much-discussed but not yet fully recognised reality: the widespread presence throughout Italy of buildings and infrastructure whose construction has never been completed. This new edition updates and expands the project with additional visual material, an essay on the current state of the phenomenon and an updated census of unfinished works.
Incompiuto continues to be an invitation to observe our surroundings, recognising a potential grammar of the present in the absence of completion.
