Architect Stefano Boeri is among
those under investigation in a Milan public prosecutor's
investigation for bid rigging in connection with the BEIC
European information and culture library project, which is to be
built in the trendy Porta Vittoria area of the Lombardy capital,
legal sources said Wednesday.
The Guardia di Finanza tax police is carrying out searches and
seizing IT material, they said.
Another lesser-known architect, Raffaele Lunati, is also among
those under investigation.
Lunati was awarded the project, while Boeri was part of the
judging commission.
Boeri, 66, is an Italian architect and urban planner,[1] and a
founding partner of Stefano Boeri Architetti.
Among his best-known projects are the iconic Vertical Forest in
Milan, the Villa Méditerranée in Marseille, and the House of the
Sea of La Maddalena.
He is the professor of urban planning at the Polytechnic
University of Milan.
