Abstract

According to this article, the preference for Hampstead opposite to Letchworth of the first italian architects connected to the Garden-City, will be an illustrative advance of the basic characteristics of the Movement in Italy: relegation of the urban decentralization and dominion over the estetics ideas. Its success may be related to the concern of the urban composition, which would establish a relationship with the artistic tradition of the Italian cities (National Identity Factor) and in an architectonic way with its links with the reformists ideas of the unifamiliar house supported by an wide variety of studies about the compostion of 'villini' which had a great prestige among the technics.
