Mario Botta is a Swiss architect. At age fifteen, Botta dropped out of secondary school and apprenticed with the architectural firm of Carloni and Camenisch in Lugano. After three years, he went to the Art College in Milan for his baccalaureate, and then to Università Iuav di Venezia for his professional degree in 1969. During his time in Venice, Botta got to meet and work with architects Carlo Scarpa, Louis Kahn and Le Corbusier. Botta started his own architectural practice in Lugano in 1970.
