This paperanalyses, through drawings, what makes Daneris’ architecture inpost-war Genoa different and transgressive, and what drives him to investigate and experiment with new approaches, sometimes contrary to the rest of INA-Casas’interventions in Italy. The quartieri are unique for their openness to modernity, sometimes imported, which paves the way to prefabrication, synonymous with technological advancement. The testimony of Grossi Bianchi, co-author with Bernab & ograve; Brea, confirms the influence of Le Corbusier. The drawings evidence his intention to adapt to Genoas’ abrupt topography, existing vegetation, and the introduction of the landscape as a design element. The significant role of architectural dissemination media-magazines, CIAM, triennial-is also highlighted, as they introduce Daneri to modern architecture and simultaneously place him within the international debate.
