“INTRODUCTION TO NATURAL STONE. GUIDE TO THE RULES, CHARACTERISTICS AND USES” by Piero Primavori published by Giorgio Zusi Editore – the first volume of a series entitled CONOSCERE LA PIETRA.
In our country, thanks to a combination of history, art, know-how and tradition that is difficult to repeat, we appreciate and use in architecture and building construction all the product categories that can be counted on: marble, granite, travertine, slate, porphyry, onyx, quartzite, breccias, etc. Whether domestically produced or of foreign origin. The author, Dr Piero Primavori, an internationally renowned consultant and lecturer at the Master’s Degree Course ‘Architecture and Construction: Contemporary Design with Stone’ (DAStU, Milan Polytechnic) introduces the natural material: what natural stones are, their characteristics, choice and laying are some of the points covered in this interesting book for ‘insiders’ and others.
By the same author, we would like to point out “THE LAPID STONES LExicon” with about 2,500 specialist terms.
