Zacchiroli was born in Bologna on Via Fondazza, near the studio of the painter Giorgio Morandi, who encouraged him towards a professional career. In 1938, he enrolled at the Faculty of Architecture in Florence, graduating in 1951, and he taught until 1955 as an assistant to Giuseppe Giorgio Gori and Adalberto Libera. After collaborating with the Bologna Urban Planning Office, he opened his own studio in 1958. His first significant project was the headquarters of Johns Hopkins University in Bologna (1956-1960), which earned him the In/ARCH Award in 1961 and reflects Alvar Aalto's influence. He designed numerous public and private works, many of which gained international recognition, and maintained a close relationship with Bologna, despite occasional opposition due to the modern and innovative character of his architecture. Since 1981, he was a member of the Accademia di San Luca. In the 1990s he designed the Turin Courthouse, together with Ezio Ingaramo and the collaboration of Pierluigi Spadolini. He died in March 2010 at the age of 90. • Illustration — Neuropsychiatric Diagnostic Center in Imola, photographed by Paolo Monti
