â?¢ A contemporary guide to the architecture of Florence, the purpose of which is to tell about the city through its architectural works â?¢ The book''s jacket opens out into a map marking the locations of the architectural works and interesting sites to visit â?¢ Includes general information about Florence, and useful tips for travelers â?¢ Each entry includes a photo of the whole building, architectural drawings, a short description, and facts including architect, year of construction, address, website, and how to visit Florence is aimed at showing how one of the Italian cities most strongly linked with its past, the quintessential symbol of the Renaissance period, conceals a myriad of innovative architecture. Florence is not a static city. It has often been guilty of long delays and a certain lack of courage in assimilating new approaches, but its way of introducing contemporary architecture into a consolidated context, is unique. Changes with great impact began in Florence at the end of the 19th century with the urban planning transformations designed by Giuseppe Poggi. The strongly defined limits of the historic center became blurred with the demolition of the fortifications and the city was opened up to permit expansion. In the 1930s, the Rationalist design of the Santa Maria Novella Station introduced a new form of architectural expression into the historic center and outskirts of the city. This is the building that begins the itinerary proposed in this guide; a chronological, but also a physical beginning: a starting point for visitors to begin their architectural excursion. | Florence: On The Road City Architecture Guides by Laura Andreini Paperback | Indigo Chapters Kids' & Toys > Art & Architecture > Architecture > History P10170, Laura Andreini<

Firenze non è una città immobile. Spesso ha dimostrato di avere lunghe tempistiche e qualche mancanza di coraggio nell'assimilare il nuovo, ma la sua maniera di introdurre un linguaggio contemporaneo in un solido contesto è unica. Cambiamenti di grande impatto hanno interessato la città a fine Ottocento attraverso le trasformazioni urbanistiche ideate da Giuseppe Poggi. I marcati confini del centro storico tendono a perdersi a causa dell'abbattimento della cerchia muraria e la città è pronta ad espandersi. Negli anni '30 del Novecento, poi, l'architettura razionalista della Stazione di Santa Maria Novella introduce un nuovo linguaggio architettonico che interesserà il centro storico e la prima periferia. È proprio da questo edificio che inizia l'itinerario consigliato nella guida; un inizio cronologico, ma anche fisico, punto d'arrivo per il visitatore che si accinge a compiere la sua passeggiata architettonica.
