Studies in History and Theory of Architecture - Studii de istoria si teoria arhitecturii
In 1960, Luciano Rubino was hired by Kay Fisker as project manager of Det Danske Institut i Rom - a soft diplomatic architecture in Rome, Italy. But also, Fisker’s last project before his passing, and the sole Italian one he ever designed. Behind the scenes, Rubino’s wife, Inge Pedersen, knew that being a native-Danish speaker and trained as an interior designer in Denmark, her role in the task could be pivotal. Such role, however, came with no credits, neither for that project nor for her later career. This article introduces an alternative historiography about four side projects by the Rubino/Pedersen practice, for which they transferred Danish design principles to the aspirations of a new wealthy Italian middle class seeking leisure homes on the outskirts at the Bracciano Lake. These villas were situated between urban and rural realms, and blended manmade with wilderness, to seamlessly meld into their surroundings. To observe without being observed. Projects that disappeared into the landscape, and eventually – as their architects did – also into architectural history. As they built a monument for Danish modernity in Rome, the same team of workers was hired to build 50 km away to vanish amidst the lake and forest. By archival review, oral history and fieldworks the article looks at how a new Italian mannerism à la Danoise allowed similar forms and details to match monumentality and invisibility, propelling a new relationship architecture/landscape: one with the landscape as the horizon.

Uscire Dall’ombra: L’Agency Architettonica Di Carolina Maraini Sommaruga
Gigliotti, Angela (2025)
Beyond the gaze. Volume 4: The city as a body
This paper sheds light on Carolina Maraini Sommaruga's role as architectural patron and employer: two male-roles for the time that are still widely associated with her husband Emilio Maraini, a Ticinese sugar beet magnate in the early years of the Kingdom of Italy. The paper questions Carolina's leading role in the Industrie Femminili Italiane that is usually neglected by historians in favour of a female depiction confined to that of a philanthropic heroine.
