Francesco Gostoli is remembered for work that changed how the next generation built.
The record lists Francesco Gostoli as Italian architect.
Francesco Gostoli was born at Rome in 1946. His recorded nationality is Italy.
Post-war architecture built at state scale: housing, new towns and civic megastructures, with results that are still being judged.
He is recorded as architect and urban planner.
Of all the arts, architecture is the one whose failures are hardest to remove.
That the work was built in Italy shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.
