Italian architect Aldo Rossi's rise to fame, and recognition by professionals and public alike, was predicated on him putting across his personal passions and memories of life experience. Italian‐born, London‐based architect and tutor Robin Monotti Graziadei investigates how the intertwining of architecture with the personal imperatives of the architect produced some extraordinary work.
