Luigi Caccia Dominioni

Luigi Caccia Dominioni was born in Milan on 7 December 1913 which marked his entry as an architect in the post-war period in Milan. He received his degree from the Milan Polytechnic University in 1936, just as the city was developing and aspiring to be modern and measure itself against the rest of Europe. With his reserved aristocratic temperament, he was an epitome of the most authentic Milanese personality: quiet and hard-working. He had a stubborn and proud faith in an ideal “Milanese identity” and as a nobleman with a simple heart was very able at transforming the Milanese dialect into an international language, understandable by anyone thanks to a visual and spatial language that was universal. Today his products are still in production thanks to companies like Azucena.
