Whether touring the ancient aqueducts and temples in Rome, marveling over the Renaissance feats in Florence, or discovering the Byzantine and Islamic influence in Sicily, the country certainly requires multiple visits just to scratch the surface of architectural riches. And for the admirers of pious architecture, Italy has its fair share of basilicas and churches that date back to the reign of Constantine the Great.The contemporary Italian built environment took on a new identity after the fall of Fascism. Eager to break from fascist architecture, the nations architects began to redefine modernist architecture void of Rationalism. A winery built inside a Sasso (home dug inside a rock formation), a total revitalization of a Neapolitan subway station, or a monolithic church nestled in the Calabrian mountainsare examples that make up the Italians contemporary landscape. Just like Brunelleschi, the Italian architects of today uphold the title of capomaestri (master builders) and continue to erect a noteworthy built environment that influences global architectural trends.With so many architecture firms to choose from, its challenging for clients to identify the industry leaders that will be an ideal fit for their project needs. Fortunately, Architizer is able to provide guidance on the top design firms in Italy based on more than a decade of data and industry knowledge.How are these architecture firms ranked?The following ranking has been created according to key statistics that demonstrate each firms level of architectural excellence.

Perathoner Architects Perathoner ArchitectsThe top priority of this firm of architects is the creation of high-quality architecture that combines modern construction technology and timeless elegance.

A condition for this is that a building respects the characteristics of the particular location and is thus able to communicate with it. This is, on the one hand, achieved by a restricted design vocabulary as well as the intelligent combination of selected materials on the other. The decisions taken must however always be questioned, reassessed and, if necessary, modified during the entire development process of a building in order to achieve optimal results in all aspects.Some of Perathoner Architects most prominent projects include:Black Eagle, Selva di Val Gardena, ItalyIl frantoio, ItalyCultural Center Tubla Da Nives, Selva di Val Gardena, ItalyVilla A, Selva di Val Gardena, ItalyHotel Genziana, Ortisei, Italy The following statistics helped Perathoner Architects achieve 18th place in the 30 Best Architecture Firms in Italy: A+Awards Winner 1 A+Awards Finalist 2 Featured Projects 4 Total Projects 8 17. studio raro Gustav WilleitBased in Trento, studio raro was established in 2004 by roberta di filippo and roberto salvischiani, and deals with architecture and visual communication, winning awards and acknowledgements in both fields.The invaluable experience acquired over the years through the on-site direction of numerous construction projects, stable collaborations with professional figures in various fields, attendance of update courses on sustainability and communication and of course the simple passion and attention to detail, has allowed the Studio to tackle, in a complete, competent and professional way, a wide range of small to large-scale projects.Some of studio raros most prominent projects include:Casa MF, Trento, ItalyAgritur La Dolce Mela, casa dellagricoltore, Ciago, ItalyAgritourism , Vezzano, ItalyCasa RR, Trento, ItalyAgritur La Dolce Mela, ampliamento, Ciago, Italy The following statistics helped studio raro achieve 17th place in the 30 Best Architecture Firms in Italy: Featured Projects 5 Total Projects 13 16.
