PROTO-RENAISSANCE BUILDING OF UNCERTAIN DATING CHARACTERIZED BY THE LOGGIA
ON THE TOP FLOOR THAT TESTIFIES THE NEED OF REPRESENTATIVENESS WIDESPREAD
AT THAT TIME OF MAXIMUM EXPRESSION OF THE HERD ECONOMY. THE ENTRANCE ARCH
IS PRAISEWORTHY AND OF HISTORIC INTEREST WITH TRACES OF A HERALDIC COAT OF
ARMS AFTERWARDS REMOVED.
THE BUILDING BLENDS WITH A TOWER-HOUSE OF TYPICAL MILITARY CHARACTERISTICS
IN DEFENCE OF THE MEDICEAN GATE AND PIAZZA WHERE THERE ARE LOOPHOLES
(NOW IN THE BATHROOM OF A ROOM) CLOSED TO THE EXTERIOR. THE STRUCTURE OF
ARTICULATED SPATIAL PLASTICITY IS STILL ‘MANIFEST’ TODAY DUE TO THE INTEGRAL
MERIT OF ARCHITECTONIC CONSERVATION OF THE ORIGINAL BUILDING AND TO THE
ABSENCE OF LATER STRATIFICATIONS. INTERVENTIONS WERE OFTEN LIMITED TO THE
REMOVAL OF MORE RECENT PLASTERING AND TO PLANT INSTALLATION WITH MAXIMUM
RESPECT OF HISTORIC ELEMENTS. ON THE FIRST FLOOR WITH THE ENTRANCE TO
THE BUILDING IT WAS DECIDED NOT TO PUT UNDERFLOOR HEATING DUE TO THE
IMPOSSIBILITY OF REMOVING THE EXTREMELY WORN TERRACOTTA TILES. WHERE IT WAS
IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT BATHROOMS IN ADJACENT ROOMS OR GROTTOES IT WAS DECIDED
WITH A SIMPLE AUSTERE DESIGN TO PLACE THEM INSIDE THE ROOMS.

THE COMPANY’S PROJECTS MAIN OBJECTIVE IS THE
HISTORICAL HERITAGE OF THE APENNINE MOUNTAIN
(IF POSSIBLE WITHIN THE NATIONAL PARKS), SUBJECT
TO A PRACTICALLY TOTAL ABANDON OVER THE LAST
2 CENTURIES. THESE HISTORIC HAMLETS, SOME OF
THEM BUILT DURING THE PERIOD OF FORTIFICATIONS
IN FULL MIDDLE AGES, SOME OTHERS MORE RURAL
AND IN LATER CENTURIES, MAINTAINED UNCORRUPTED
THEIR ORIGINAL RELATION WITH THE SURROUNDING
TERRITORY, THANKS TO THE RARE URBANIZATION
OF THE LAST CENTURY, INSCRIBED IN THE GENERAL
PHENOMENON OF ABANDONING THE MOUNTAIN AND OF
THE IMPOVERISHMENT OF SOUTHERN ITALY.
THE PROJECT RELATIVE TO THESE HAMLETS FORESEES
AN UNUSUAL PRESERVATION OF THE BUILDINGS AND THE
MAINTENANCE OF THEIR ORIGINAL CUBAGE, BY MEANS
OF THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF RECLAIMED ARCHITECTONIC
MATERIALS AND THE LOCAL FITTINGS SUPPORTED BY
THE DISCIPLINE OF THE TERRITORIAL BODIES IMPOSING
THE BUILDING BAN, AS THERE IS NO URBAN INDEX
REQUIRING THE NEED OF NEW CONSTRUCTIONS. THE
MAIN INSPIRATION COMES FROM THE CONVICTION THAT
IN THESE HISTORIC HAMLETS, PLACED ON THE SIDE
OF THE APENNINE MOUNTAIN AND BUILT FAR FROM
THE PLACES PROPULSIVE OF CLASSICALITY, THE REAL
HERITAGE IS MADE FROM THE HISTORICAL BUILDINGS’
INTEGRITY WITH THE SURROUNDING LANDSCAPE.
TOO OFTEN IN THE SOUTH OF EUROPE NEW BUILDINGS
SPRANG UP LIKE MUSHROOMS AROUND THE ORIGINAL
HAMLET, THROUGH THE USE OF MATERIALS IN CLEAR
CONTRAST WITH THE EXISTING HERITAGE AND EVEN
AROUND THE HISTORIC HAMLETS THAT WERE BEING
TRANSFORMED INTO ACCOMMODATION FACILITIES.
THEREFORE THE INTEGRITY OF SOME OF THESE
HAMLETS AND THEIR TERRITORY HAS TO PASS FROM
CONSEQUENCE OF POVERTY AND ABANDONMENT TO
POLITICAL AGENDA FOR A QUALITY DEVELOPMENT OF
THE TERRITORY.
AMONG THE BUILDINGS PURCHASED IN EACH HAMLET,
PART OF THEM IS DESTINED FOR ACCOMMODATION
FACILITIES (WITH A PURELY AND TYPICAL FAMILIAR
MANAGEMENT OF SUCH ACTIVITY); OTHER HOUSES ARE
DESTINED FOR SALE, HAVING THE POSSIBILITY TO USE NOT
ONLY THE COMMON SERVICES OF THE ACCOMMODATING
PART AS FOR EXAMPLE THE RESTAURANT, THE WINE BAR,
THE FREE TIME, BUT ALSO THE SPECIFIC SERVICES WITH
THIS APPEAL OF FAMILIAR MANAGEMENT ACCORDING
TO HABITS NOT ALWAYS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE
PROFESSIONAL FORMATION BUT BEING INTEGRAL PART
OF THE SPIRIT OF A POPULATION WELL PRESERVED IN
FRONT OF THE MARGINALITY DESTINY OF THESE PLACES.
SERVICES, DESCRIBED SYNTHETICALLY AND NOT IN AN
EXHAUSTIVE WAY, CAN COMPREHEND AT COST PRICE,
SECRETARIAL SERVICES, SUCH AS THE INTERNET
