Casa Rustici was designed by Guiseppe Terragni and Pietro Lingeri. The residential building was built from 1933 to 1935. The building is located in Milan, Italy, and has become an example to rationalist architecture. The apartment building was designed in the beginning as two separate buildings, but were built perpendicular to the street. The buildings were then connected by a balcony. The architects then focused on using a grid of pillars and walls of the structure to showcase white marble. The building is 19,550 cubic meters, and consists of six floors and the ground. Floors 1-5 house apartments while the top floor houses the villa and the basement houses offices and garages.
