The Gallaratese housing project in Milan (aka Monte Amiata), designed by Carlo Aymonino and Aldo Rossi, is an iconic example of postmodern architecture completed in the early 1970s. Aymonino's design emphasizes communal spaces and urban connectivity, while Rossi's contributions include the striking, repetitive facades and a focus on historical architectural references. The Gallaratese project is celebrated for its innovative approach to social housing and its enduring influence on architectural design.
