Subsidized residential tall buildings, Nuovo Portello
The two tall buildings give form together to a new square which is the starting point of the path towards the park framing the front of the Milano Fair.
The windows of varying shape and proportion, the different rolling and sliding shutter devices, the deep loggias with the steel and glass parapets are disposed following a series of permutations which maximize the long views toward the city.
The use of surface material (de-coloured terracotta tiles and white stone) and the gable silhouette constitute a critical reading of the features of post-war Milanese architecture.
