Filarete

Antonio di Pietro Aver(u)lino (Italian pronunciation: [anˈtɔːnjo di ˈpjɛːtro aver(u)ˈliːno]; c. 1400 – c. 1469), known as Filarete (Italian: [filaˈrɛːte]; from Ancient Greek: φιλάρετος, meaning "lover of excellence"), was a Florentine Renaissance architect, sculptor, medallist, and architectural theorist. He is perhaps best remembered for his design of the ideal city of Sforzinda, the first ideal city plan of the Renaissance.
