The designer of Casa Fantini, Piero Lissoni, has made a sensitive interpretation of the local spirit, designing “soft, airy spaces where it is pleasant to linger, listen to music, read, meditate, chat, getting lost in the magnificent view… Everything has been carefully and discreetly arranged, ‘incorporated’ to convey an atmosphere of serenity for guests, so they can feel right at home.”
The typical local stone and Accoya wood are the main ingredients, and the wooden facade planks, with their refendino cutting (a revived traditional type of workmanship), have made it possible not to clad the building, but to tailor a garment for it that blends perfectly into the surrounding landscape.
Samuel Lorenzi, a partner of Lissoni Architettura, even talks about an ‘indoor-outdoor’ situation without boundaries, since the lush lakeside vegetation almost enters the place, also thanks to sliding glass doors on the ground floor.
