Gio Ponti: "con la costruzione daremo la casa arredata"
During the Second World War, Gio Ponti assiduously explored the problem of the ‘home for everyone’, developing it both through the professional activity of his office and through the new magazine he founded, “Stile”, which he published and directed between 1941 and 1947. The ‘home for everyone’ is designed in the hope of future reconstruction after the war and is developed both as urban housing and as a small house (that can also be combined in row houses) for the suburban areas of the city or for the countryside; in any case, it is conceived on the basis of standardized construction and furnishing elements, designed in accordance with major Italian industries. Ponti’s proposal will not ultimately succeed but the architect will continue to study this problem until the 1970s. Gio Ponti; “Stile”; furniture; interior design; reconstruction.
