In the series Residential Masterpieces this issue focuses on two works by Carlo Scarpa: Casa Veritti built in Udine from 1955 till 1961 and Casa Ottolenghi built in Bardolini from 1974 till 1979. The houses introduced here are masterpieces with the highest quality not only within Italy but also in the history of 20th century residential architecture. Despite the presence of a gap of twenty years between the period of their creation and a difference in their respective styles, these two houses are important milestones that illuminate this architects life as an artist.
