G HOUSE in Como, Italy by Lorenzo Guzzini

Sunday, February 2nd, 2014

Article source: Lorenzo Guzzini

The idea of the project is to value an abandoned villa from 19th century in Como, through an architectural re-elaboration of the owners’ s memories.

The family that live into this house is from a central region of Italy, Marche and they used to live among the medieval villages made in bricks. For them construction means matter, bulk and static.
