Ca' Masieri, Venetian palace on Grand Canal in Dorsoduro, Italy
This triangular palace features a brick facade decorated with single-lancet windows and a water portal facing the Grand Canal next to Palazzo Balbi.
Angelo Masieri commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to renovate the pre-nineteenth-century building, but the American architect's proposal was rejected by Venice Municipal Council in 1955.
The palace houses the Project Archive of Venice IUAV University and hosts exhibitions focusing on contemporary architecture and design innovations.
The building reopens to visitors in spring 2024 following extensive maintenance work initiated by IUAV University rector Benno Albrecht.
Carlo Scarpa's 1983 renovation maintained the original facade while transforming the interior space with additional floor levels and architectural elements.
