Adelaide Testa reminds us not to forget about Enzo Venturelli fantastic (in the true meaning of the word) architectures in Torino...

He developed the so-called "architettura nucleare" (nuclear architecture), aka "architettura atomica" (atomic architecture).

It was a special movement, where you had only one person (him).

Here above the house he did for the artist Umberto Mastroianni (it was 1954): http://www.archilovers.com/p14192/casa-studio-mastroianni?sMiniImg=1

But also the reptiles-house at the zoo, is another quite impressive building...
