Angelo Mangiarotti (Milan, 1921-2012) graduated in Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano in 1948. In 1953 he traveled to the United States to work and met Frank Lloyd Wright, Walter Gropius, Mies van der Rohe and Konrad Wachsmann.
There, he opened an architecture firm together with Bruno Morassutti until 1960. While working as an architect, whose works are published in books, specialized magazines and newspapers, he has an intense didactic activity carried out in different Italian and foreign universities.
Mangiarotti, as a designer, gives a very important role to plastic research. The objective of his research, which is always carried out carefully respecting the characteristics of the material, is the definition of the shape of the object as a quality of the material.
