Gaetano Pesce (8 November 1939 – 3 April 2024) was an Italian architect and a design pioneer of the 20th century.[1] Pesce was born in La Spezia in 1939, and he grew up in Padua and Florence.[2] During his 50-year career, Pesce worked as an architect, urban planner, and industrial designer.[3][4] His outlook is considered broad and humanistic, and his work is characterized by an inventive use of color and materials, asserting connections between the individual and society, through art, architecture, and design to reappraise mid-twentieth-century modern life.[5][6][7][8]
