Giovanni Muzio (February 12, 1893 - May 21, 1982) was an Italian architect. Muzio was born and died in Milan and is most closely associated with the Novecento Italiano group.
After service in World War I Muzio began his practice in 1920 and is responsible for the best-known work of the Novecento movement, the 1922 residential block called the Ca'Brütta ("Ugly House") on the Via Moscova in Milan. The style is a stripped-down neo-classicism, five stories on a rounded corner patterned with real and blind arches, and bands of color for each story.
Other buildings include the Milan Tennis Club (1923-9), the Banca Bergamasca (1924-7), the Santa Maria Annunciata in Chiesa Rossa (1932) and exhibition buildings for the 1930 Triennale exhibition, with Gio Ponti and the artist Mario Sironi.
