Life

Narducci was born in Rome, into a middle-class family. After receiving his technical 'licenzia' in 1903–04, he obtained a diploma in architectural decoration from the Arts and Industry Museum of Rome in 1909. In the same year he won a competition to become a designer for the Italian state railway company, Ferrovie dello Stato.

From 1920-21 he enrolled in the three-year program at the Regia Scuola Superiori di Architettura, and from there he received his degree in Civil Architecture in 1923. In 1930 passed the qualification examination to become a practicing professional engineer.

In his lifetime, working under the Ministry of Communications (now within the Ministry of Transport) he designed approximately 40 railway stations, both new buildings and post-war reconstructions and about ten Post Offices. He frequently worked with his colleague Angiolo Mazzoni. He died in Rome, aged 91.

gollark: Well, yes, it'd be stupid if it didn't, but they all seem to operate on the same base thing of the "socket", which is odd.

gollark: It is part of my long term plan to undermine Golang.

gollark: Keep thinking that. or don't. or do.

gollark: My problem is that they all operate on "sockets" (well, file descriptors), despite doing entirely different things.

gollark: I don't think any of the actual individual API calls are.
