Alberto Rosselli [Editor]
Alberto Rosselli [Editor]: STILE INDUSTRIA. Milan: Domus, 1956. Original edition [Volume 3, Number 7: June 1956]. Text in Italian, photo captions in Italian and English. A very good to near fine vintage magazine: glossy wrappers show light wear along spine. Rear cover diagonally creased. Interior unmarked and very clean. Out-of-print. Cover design by Michele Provinciali. A rare periodical.
9.5 x 13 side-stitched Magazine with 52 pages of editorial content plus trade advertisements. Alberto Rosselli was among the first Italians to take an interest and start speaking of "industrial design.” He founded and directed Stile Industria – an adjunct publication of Domus that soon acquired complete autonomy. He was also an influential lecturer in Architecture at Milan Polytechnic.
More than any other magazine of the postwar period, Stile Industria [1954 - 1963]served to reinforce the special role for the mass-produced object. It promoted design as one of the most important cultural forces in modern Italy. Launched in 1954 under the editorship of Alberto Rosselli, it quickly became an important force in the Italian neo-Modernist design movement, providing a platform for discussions about the aesthetic and meaning of modern design in an international context.
