Article source: AUS Pasini Ranieri The quiet Matteotti Village, a suburban residential neighborhood of little one-story houses with a small yard and a kitchen-garden, was planned and implemented in the 1930s with the ominous name of Mussolini Village adopting pseudo-rural typologies and using autarchic materials. Few steps away from House D, implemented by Pasini and Ranieri five years before, House P is extended starting from an identical existing building and in accordance with prescriptive ground figures in the planning codes.
The design is a variation on the theme \”bourgeois vs. anti- bourgeois\”: the pseudo-rural front is attributed features of a fully urban status, gained with the post-war enlargement of the town, while the rear is divested of any conventional features unveiling naked residential functions.
