A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The Torre Velasca (1958), a high-rise building located in Milan and developed by the Italian architectural firm BBPR, was presented by Ernesto Rogers, one of the firm partners, at CIAM 59’ celebrated at the Kröller-Muller Museum in Otterlo, The Netherlands. The building became the centre of an international debate between Rogers and the English architect Peter Smithson, a discussion concerning the continuation of the project of modernity in architecture. The article, through a precise recreation of the discussion, demonstrates even though the architects preoccupations differ, they find a common ground in the question of architectural form.
