In the landscape of the Euganean Hills, in Abano Terme, the Ville Thalia project reorganizes a plot through the composition of two distinct building bodies: a single-family residence and a two-family building. The intervention chooses a contemporary architectural language, based on the clarity of volumes and the control of proportions, distancing itself from traditional forms to assert its own geometric identity. The genesis of the project starts from an essential and linear floor plan. To prevent this simplicity from translating into visual staticity, the design of the first-floor elevations introduces a decisive three-dimensional variation. The main envelope, characterized by sand-colored plaster, is interrupted and rhythmed by the inser... More

In the province of Padua, the Villa Victoria project stands out for a precise stylistic choice that moves away from conventional white standards to explore the richness of dark and enveloping tones. The intervention works on the density of the space, where light serves to enhance the tactile and chromatic quality of the surfaces. The generating element of the internal composition is the chestnut oak floor. This continuous, brown surface acts as a noble base upon which the living area volumes are set, through contrast or assonance. The kitchen is resolved architecturally through columns in liquid bronze metal, whose luminous vibration serves as a backdrop for the central island: a stone monolith with warm veins, a material that reappears pu...

In the pedestrian heart of Padua, Essentia redefines the concept of a showroom through an intervention that works on spatial continuity and the expressive power of surfaces. The project moves beyond simple commercial display to create a unified organism, where cement resin, stone, and wood become architectural matter that guides the visitor from the public dimension of the ground floor toward the immersive and intimate dimension of the basement. The entrance welcomes the client into a space that becomes an urban scenography. The reception stands out as a monolithic volume in travertine: a tectonic presence that organizes flows and acts as the first material manifesto, directing the gaze toward the hall. Here, the environment is rhythmicall... More

radical transformation of an apartment in the heart of Turin: a new home for a young Sicilian couple. The owners brought with them a wealth of passions and interests that were translated into precise choices of color, geometry and volumes. Two personalities with commonalities and divergent points that came together in a coherent and lively mix. Virginia Lorello Virginia Lorello The palette of this project is defined by the perfect balance of the two owners’ tastes: one of the two has a preference for blue and cool tones, while the other favors terracotta and warm colors. A mix that, on paper, seemed impossible, but when well calibrated, becomes highly interesting and dynamic. Black adds character to the entire composition a... More

The bastide of Monpazier, founded in 1284 by will of Edward I, king of England, is classified among the most beautiful villages in France, and has maintained its original appearance and dimensions almost intact, presenting itself to visitors today as an authentic jewel of medieval architecture. The building transformed into a boutique hotel has gone through 8 centuries of history in a continuum of stratifications (noble palace, then bourgeois house, finally hotel), some of which have hidden - and sometimes destroyed - traces of previous eras. ERA - Enrico Realacci Architectures   ERA - Enrico Realacci Architectures Our aim was to bring some of these traces back to light, restoring an identity value to the building but, at... More
