We traveled to Como, Italy which is about 30 minutes South of Riva to see a few buildings by Terragni (a well-known Italian architect) for a day-trip...one was a modern, modular building built in the 1930's called Casa del Fascio (house of fascism) directly across the street from an old cathedral (dichotomy at its finest).

Another of the buildings was a kindergarten he did for the area....wraps around a central courtyard, layers of windows allow natural light from floor to ceiling. Teeny tiny baby chairs everywhere. We stopped for gellato along the water.
