Office in Casa Sissa
Casa Sissa is a building designed by Gio Ponti and Emilio Lancia in 1934 in Corso Italia, Milan. The building is an elegant work where rationalist, eclectic and Novecento style elements coexist.
Upon entering the exquisite marble foyer, one encounters a meticulously restored small office, preserving Ponti's original layout and reviving numerous features and details that were previously in a state of disrepair.

The restoration project for the library insists on part of the ground floor of Palazzo Liviano (designed by Giò Ponti for the competition of 1934 and built in 1937) and on the porch leaning against the same facing the inner courtyard.
The space concerning the Liviano Palace corresponds to the projection on the ground floor of the overlying 14th century Sala dei Giganti: this space constitutes the oldest part of the Carraresi palace, characterized by a perfectly preserved system of cross vaults.

Of this enormous complex today only the buil... More
