Information and details regarding Novocomum. |
| About & History: Giuseppe Terragni designed from 1927 to 1929 the Novocomum, a modern apartment complex. He presented a proposal with very traditional sides to the municipality, which they approved. The scaffolding was placed and construction was started. However, the construction drawings which were presented to the municipality have never been received by the builders, which he gave a new proposal. Nobody could see what was developing behind the scaffolding. At the moment of presenting the finished building, it was a big shock. An awful building had risen up, according to the municipality. There was even a moment they considered demolishing it, until they realized that the avant-gardists loved the building and it made Como an even more popular destination. Terragni was looking for a good combination between surrounding landscape and the building. This Rationalist thinking ended up in a well-designed apartment complex. |
