The book

This guide introduces a new contemporary architecture series exploring urban transformation processes. In this respect, the Intesa Sanpaolo skyscraper in Turin is a highly representative building — by integrating architecture and territory it acknowledges the identity of an entire community and of the landscape that has developed around it over the centuries. The skyscraper translates Renzo Piano’s vision and through its combination of technological innovation, transparency, and lightness, it points towards a sustainable and effective use of energetic resources.
The Intesa Sanpaolo skyscraper’s balanced dialogue with the territory — where  technology, art, Guarini’s churches, and Antonelli’s architectures meet plains, hills, and mountains — adds a further dimension to its skyline, interpreting Turin as one of the cities where Italy connects to Europe.
