Born in Venice in 1906, Carlo Scarpa studied architecture at the city's Academy of Fine Arts, where he graduated in 1926. He taught architectural drawing at the Academy, where he held several chairs throughout his life, and at the same time began his career as an industrial and interior designer and architect, working for the Venini glass factory in Venice. His most prominent project of the years preceding the Second World War was the restoration of the Faculty of Economics of the University of Venice. In his work Scarpa often reveals that he is influenced by Art Nouveau and masters such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Josef Hoffmann.
Scarpa's architecture is characterized by great attention to the passage of time and continuous change.
He died in 1978 in Japan, and is buried in the Brion complex of the San Vito d'Altivole cemetery (Treviso)-built by him in 1969, and considered by many to be his masterpiece by him.
In the history of Italian design, Bernini is an extraordinary and unique experience that draws its foundations directly from the roots of the "know-how" of wood in the Lombardy area since the fifteenth century. An attitude and availability that has produced true design and production excellence that today we can find in museums and collections all over the world.
