Torri Rivella

Torri Rivella, Art Deco palace in Aurora district, Turin, Italy.

Torri Rivella are two eight-storey buildings at Rondò Rivella, where Corso Regina Margherita meets Corso Regio Parco and Corso San Maurizio. Their corner facades alternate bands of grey plaster and red brick, and the two are mirror-symmetrical but differ in their Art Deco ornament, corner treatment and the pinnacles of the central body.

Architect Eugenio Vittorio Ballatore di Rosana designed the two Torri Rivella in 1929 for Francesco Rivella, who moved his fur atelier here. Rivella introduced dyeing beaver pelts in fashionable colours and heavy advertising. The buildings reinterpret the 19th-century idea of a boulevard gateway, as seen on via Roma and corso Gabetti.

Locals call the pair "zuccheriere" (sugar bowls) for their shape. The name Rivella comes from Francesco Rivella, the furrier who moved his atelier here; he dyed beaver pelts in the era's fashionable colours and advertised heavily. The design echoes 19th-century boulevard gateways, as tried earlier on via Roma and corso Gabetti.

The complex sits at Rondò Rivella, a major intersection linking the historic center with northern Turin via Corso Regina Margherita and Corso San Maurizio. Visitors should expect an active crossroads with steady foot and vehicle traffic passing through at all hours.

Although the two towers appear identical at first glance, each displays its own decorative patterns and distinct corner treatments. The geometric pinnacle designs differ in their details, giving both structures individual character.
