His mark can also be seen in Rome's Palazzo Mengarini and Palazzo Margherita (the latter is now the American Emabssy to Italy in Via Veneto). He collaborated with others in the design of the Monument to Vittorio Emanuele II.

He also designed the decoration of the main hall of the Palazzo Comunale at Recanati.
