1985 Aldo Rossi: Buildings and Projects. English-language architectural monograph surveying the work of influential Italian architect Aldo Rossi, compiled and edited by Peter Arnell and Ted Bickford, with an introduction by Vincent Scully, postscript by Rafael Moneo, and project descriptions by Mason Andrews. Covers projects from approximately 1959–1983 and is extensively illustrated with architectural photographs, drawings, sketches, plans, elevations, renderings, paintings, models and design studies. This copy is an unusual Korean-market cover variant of the original English-language Rizzoli publication. Korean text appears on the front cover, while the interior is entirely in English. The copyright page identifies the 1985 Rizzoli publication and states that the book was printed and bound in Japan. The silver Korean-market cover differs significantly from the standard Rizzoli edition and is seldom encountered for sale in the United States. Condition: Very good overall. Light surface wear and scuffing to the covers from normal handling, with minor edge and corner wear. Interior is clean with no writing, highlighting, stains, torn pages or missing pages. Binding remains solid.
