Hans Ibelings, the Dutch editor of A10: new European architecture, provides a reticent but entirely perceptive account of the Italian architecture scene from a wider European perspective. Architectural culture in Italy may be nascent in comparison to some of its continental neighbours, but it is ‘richer and more versatile’ than it has been for many years. He emphasises the role that ‘an intermediate generation’ has played in smoothing the way for a more confident, emerging generation of designers. Copyright © 2007 Hans Ibelings.
