I've seen this building photographed so many times that I almost skipped it. Really glad I convinced myself to go though. The scale and monumentality are something you have to experience in person, and it's even more impressive than I expected.

Designed in 1937 under Mussolini for the 1942 World's Fair that never took place, the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, also known as the “Square Colosseum”, is an icon of Italian Rationalist architecture and has been Fendi's headquarters since 2015.
