Carlo Scarpa in Venice: a gate, a lecture hall, a showroom and a garden
Four works Carlo Scarpa left inside the historic city, walked west to east: the gate he drew for the school of architecture and never saw built, the lecture hall at Ca’ Foscari, the Olivetti showroom under the Procuratie, and the water garden at the Querini Stampalia.
