A portrait of Gio Ponti the man and the architect, aspiring painter, promotor ante litteram of Italian design who, in a career spanning more than fifty years, experimented tirelessly with everything – arts, crafts, objects, architecture and materials – from the small to the large, from designing a handle to creating a town planning scheme.
