The Project
The intervention involved the construction and completion of Villa Petrolio, located in the scenic area of Cerreto Guidi—an area defined by the harmony between the rolling Tuscan hills and refined traditional architecture.
The use of red tumbled brick slips and bricks contributed to maintaining a harmonious dialogue between the new construction and the existing built environment, giving the project an authentic and elegant look, fully respecting the local architectural features. The tumbled corner bricks ensured stylistic continuity at the edges, recreating the effect of traditional masonry.
The project unfolded in several phases, with particular attention to the quality and durability of the chosen solutions. Installation was carried out according to the best construction practices, ensuring a final result of high aesthetic value.
