“Countryside Home” In Salento, Italy
October 11, 2011
“Countryside Home” in Salento, a single family residence located in the countryside of Morciano di Leuca, Italy was created by Bologna-based architect Luca Zanaroli.
The dwelling’s rustic shell is formed from the abandoned remnants of two historic structures once used as a temporary shelter for local farmers.

Inside the building, minimalist furnishings draw attention to the restored barrel vaults and domes constructed with
locally sourced stone dating from the late 1800s.
