Edificio residenziale

Collective housing · by Carlo De Carli · 1958

via Balzaretti 28, Milano, Italy

This six-storey apartment building uses an inverted-T plan to exploit a deep site between Via Balzaretti and Via Pinturicchio. Two forward wings form a small planted court on the street side and are expressed as stacked loggias that step back on the upper floors. A reinforced-concrete frame is legible in the façade’s horizontal bands, contrasted with clinker cladding and windows of varied width. An asymmetrical entrance and projecting canopy mark the approach, underscoring the architect’s attention to everyday thresholds and light.
