SISMOGRAFI DELLA MODERNITÀ. SPAZI E ARCHITETTURE PER IL COMMERCIO DI MARINO LOPOPOLO

This contribution aims to investigate the urban reality of the city of Bari during the period between the two wars. Particular attention is paid to the ways in which the places of consumption became rooted in the physical geography of the city, in the flows of mobility, in the models of urban planning and architectural design. In order to do this, it was decided to address the design activity of some of the most active designers in this field on the territory of the Apulian capital. Specifically, the projects of the futurist architect Marino Lopopolo were examined in depth, identifying as a case study that of the individual businesses, the shops he designed during the years of fascism.
