IN THE NAME OF FRANK ( and others)

  • June 20, 2019
NEL NOME DI FRANK ( ed altri)

In a magazine where the Villa was defined as ‘almost archaic rigor‘. There are many references to the organic architecture defined by Frank Lloyd Wright as “a branch of architecture that promotes harmony between man and nature, creating a new system in balance between built environment and natural environment through the integration of various man-made artificial elements (buildings, furnishings, etc.), and natural surroundings of the site. All become part of a single interconnected organic architectural space”.

The villa wraps the pond as a place for summer conviviality and at the same time contains the large one central fireplace as a space for winter communion. Water and fire as opposed but natural elements and wanted for the same purpose. The extensive use of wood and many architectural references make the property a particular place for the unsettling succession of chiaroscuro, change of direction, details, hidden environments and unexpected volumes. But all with the common denominator of the object surrounded by nature. Nature that besieges and seems to want to enter thanks to the wide passages, without barriers, accompanied by the light that penetrates the many holes at any time of day.

As in the best Wrightian tradition, every detail is custom designed, from furnishings to fixtures, from the doors to the lighting, from handles to built-in wardrobes, from the central staircase to the skylights. A unique one also for yours events.

 

VENETO AND PROPERTY MANAGERS

IL VENETO ED I PROPERTY MANAGERS

Afternoon meeting of a part of the Venetian Property Managers adhering to Property Managers Italia, association that for some years has been committed to representing the business of those who manage short rents on behalf of the owners (tourist) at their homes. A fast growing market but also a need for quality towards guests and regulations that are not always clear, at central and regional level, these are the topics that were discussed during a sunny afternoon played by the 'Venetian column’ of the association between the porch and the interior. Spaced with good fresh prosecco and teases.

NEW LOGO

  • June 8, 2019

The new logo and the new one coordinated image are inspired by the rose window on the wall towards the park, one of the symbols of the villa. A sort of truncated cone in concrete facing south-east and embedded in the wall with the planes of the base and the vertex offset from each other. This' bulging’ allows the sun in its ascent from dawn to the zenith to project inside the House a globe of light that in summer, with the sun higher on the horizon, it falls on the white wall, flooding the house with light during the winter, with the sun lower on the horizon, the globe runs along the wooden balustrade and colors the environment with a warmer light. The villa is full of small and large architectural details. If you love this style maybe a little’ different from the usual Venetian villa and you want to organize your own event, write.
