For this poster series, the London-based designer has selected complexes built in Italy during the 1960s and 70s, often as part of government-mandated programmes to rebuild the country and help to accommodate people after the destruction caused during the second world war. Each print features a project located a different Italian city, with places including Bologna, Busto Arsizio, Florence, Genova, Livorno, Milan, Naples, Rome and Trieste.

For Milan, Chadwick chose a building that Italian architect Aldo Rossi completed in 1972 as part of the Gallaratese Quarter, featuring a set of identical square windows atop a pillared construction. An image of Japanese architect Kenzo Tange's Fiera District, built in 1970, adorns the Bologna poster.

Each has two...
