According to the critics, "his work evolved from academia and folklorism to a final expression in modernism. He nourished a Mediterranean feeling for order, harmony, clarity of shape and a good understanding of the function of space. Apart from pure design, also achieved renown as a theoretician, especially in the fields of the problems of proportions and modular coordination."
