Below Assisi

The inspiration for Gabriele and Sabrina’s Greek space came from a journey between the client and the design studio. The path taken has changed the nature of the traditional house by projecting it towards timber construction. The synergies between client and designer were the heart and soul of the project. Its realisation to date has been a long journey in which people have met and have walked together towards the end of the journey. The house located at the foot of Assisi enjoys a splendid view and the natural tranquillity of its surroundings. The iron staircase is the beating heart of its “L”-shaped ground floor: it grants access to the secret part of the tower known as the “Sublimatoio”, from where one accesses the terrace that offers a postcard-perfect view and an escape from the world. Pietre d’Arredo reconstructed stone, specifically the Arenal Grigio Terra collection, was chosen for the external wall cladding: an element that, with its irregular shapes and structured surfaces, embellished with splits and colour nuances, is reminiscent of natural elements in every detail, blending perfectly with its surroundings.
