[5]

He has also been titled Ignazio Agliaudo di Tavigliano, a reference to his family being the hereditary counts of Tavigliano. Using this name, Ignazio was credited for building the Oratory adjoining the it:Chiesa di San Filippo Neri in Turin in 1723, based on designs by Filippo Juvarra. [6] He is also credited for building the it:Chiesa della Madonna del Carmine, also in Turin and based on designs by Filippo Juvarra. For this enedeavor, he collaborated with Francesco Benedetto Ferrogio and it:Ignazio Renato Birago di Borgaro from 1732 to 1736. [7]
