The Red Dinosaur

The Monte Amiata Housing Complex in Milan, designed by Carlo Aymonino and Aldo Rossi (1967–1972), is a bold example of Italian modernist architecture. Known for its striking red facades and interconnected structures, the complex was conceived as a "micro-city," blending residential life with shared public spaces. Its design reflects a vision of urban complexity, inspired by Le Corbusier and reinterpreted through a uniquely Italian lens.
