Summary

Carlo Fontana projected in Loyola an architecture that relevantly summarised what was then state-of-the-art knowledge on the concepts of spatial organisation: an orderly place, with the medieval Tower House as the generating element, which shows a scenic representation of the glorification of the birthplace of San Ignacio. A work in which mathesis, the science of order and measure merges with taxonomy, the discipline that regulates complex representation systems.
