"The story of Massimiliano Fuksas, a Roman architect of Lithuanian origin who was born in Italy but spent much of his early years in Central Europe, is one of a progressive conquest of important design opportunities and renown, to the point where he has now become one of the best-known Italian architects on the international scene." "This volume, while illustrating visually the more important of the works he produced between 1970 and 1990, tends to focus chiefly on the ones constructed over the last fifteen years which have earned him the international standing he enjoys today. The volume shows the works and projects he has produced at a feverish pace, arranging them in the form of a story told in acrylics and including sketches, drawings, structural details and photographic reportages, along with a series of short, exclusive interviews with some of the clients who have played an important part in Fuksas's work in recent years, from Giorgio Armani to Walter Veltroni and the Nardini family."--Jacket.
