context_page_description: Ignazio Gardella was an Italian architect and designer.
context_section_description: The figure of Gardella remained at the pinnacle of Italian architecture for all of the 1960s and '70s, with intense professional activity whose importance is proven by his presence in international publications.  In the last phase of his life, Gardella, now among the eminences grises of Italian architecture, still produced significant projects, like the Faculty of Architecture of Genoa (1975–1989), which brought him once more to the front lines of the architectural debate.
