Achille Manfredini

Achille Manfredini (13 May 1869 – 1920) was an Italian architect and engineer, active in the Liberty style or Art Nouveau movement.

His monumental architecture exerted some influence[1] on the futurist architect Antonio Sant'Elia.

Circa 1910, Manfredini developed a controversial project for a 14 story skyscraper planned for the piazza where the former church of San Giovanni in Conca was located.

The opinions of skyscraper in central Milan were divided among prominent architects of the time.

[2][3] He became founder and editor of the trade journal for architecture and engineering Monitore tecnico, which began publication in 1894.
