Résumé:
A book-manifesto that details the 60-plus year career of Ugo La Pietra in applied arts and design through his research. An unorthodox, humanist and eclectic designer, since the late 1950s, La Pietra has always moved on the outskirts of the system, but in a bravely transdisciplinary perspective. Through his tireless work, Ugo La Pietra has practised with and experienced all possible languages. Not just architecture and design, but also cinema, painting, sculpture, comics, drawings, music and poetry. Now this volume collects the various moments that, over time, have characterised his involvement in the evolution of the world of design, marked in thematic chapters that examine the problems and theories that have accompanied his research.

Résumé:
In the sixties and seventies, Ugo La Pietra's design research focused, following critical trends which analysed the social and peripheral aspect of the urban space, on spontaneous material cultures. In particular, within Other cultures, La Pietra's investigation focuses on a specific and circumscribed environment, where architectural peculiarities are created spontaneously: Poetto beach in Cagliari. The review, which consists of a photographic sampling of the summer beach constructions, the "ville", dating back to 1978 and reveals a unique environment that has all but vanished, a spontaneous architecture that observes a cohesive language. The wooden villas along the beach in Cagliari are unique structures which form, as shown inside the book, a real lost architectural alphabet.
