Ivano Gianola is a key figure in the Ticino School, which emerged in the early 1970s as a collective of architects advocating for radical, symbolic alternatives to the environmental degradation caused by new construction in Ticino. Gianola's work stands out for its seamless integration into the surrounding context and meticulous craftsmanship, transforming each project into a cohesive work of art. His creations are celebrated for their beauty and adherence to the Arts-and-Crafts tradition, showcasing a blend of craft precision and high aesthetic values. This excellence led to international commissions in the 1990s, including significant projects like the conversions and new buildings for Bayerische Vereinsbank in Munich, contributing to the Fünf Höfe site’s revitalization. Gianola's most notable achievement is winning an international competition to redesign the area around the former Palace luxury hotel in Lugano, which will feature a theater, modern art museum, housing, offices, a municipal park, and an expanded lakeside promenade—marking the largest project ever awarded by the Canton of Ticino. This publication presents a comprehensive overview of Gianola's work, highlighting his status as a leading figure in contemporary architecture. Katia Accossato and Nicola Probst, both architects and educators, along with Frank R. Werner, an architectural historian, contribute to this monograph.
