Always dear to Italians, the home is a significant and meaningful place, whose role, as a resource and/or expression of social status, depends on demographic, political, and cultural factors. Residential architecture, however, is also thought, born from the direct relationship between designer and client. This intertwining has in many cases produced very high results, which are collected in this itinerary.
The representative home presents a notable typological variety, ranging from the single-family villa in isolated places to the apartment in the heart of the city. Even the shape of the holiday home is not univocal and the choice between a typology attests to the evolution of social dynamics. Thus, the exclusivity and privacy of the single-family villa is contrasted by the residence with its common spaces, specifically designed to satisfy the desire for conviviality of the modern family.
A particularly interesting aspect of this construction typology is the possibility of multidisciplinary collaborations. In fact, it is not uncommon for projects to involve architects and artists, with highly suggestive results, the consequence of a vision of living that becomes shared aesthetics. The itinerary shows several surprising living solutions, with their original furnishings, which, courtesy of the owners, are published for the first time.
