About Patrizia's House

On two levels, the ground floor is the representative space of the house, divided into a living and spa area and a service space. In terms of contextualisation and formal solutions, the most striking aspects of this house are its sensory richness and the unconventional perception of time that underlies the entire architectural conception.
