A house in the Mediterranean: ancient nineteenth-century farmhouse restored

In Ostuni, in the province of Brindisi, in Puglia, Architects Aldo Flore and Rosanna Venezia renovate an ancient farmhouse from the late 1800s creating a Mediterranean residence open to the hospitality and typical welcome of the land where it is located

An orange grove that smells of hospitality

Once an old orange grove, today it is the beating heart of a residence that celebrates the project "A house in the Mediterranean", designed by the architects Aldo Flore & Rosanna Venezia. At the center, a pool welcomes guests with the scent of orange blossoms that spreads in the air, creating an atmosphere suspended between nature and well-being. The carefully chosen and sensitive furnishings tell stories: some come from ancient family homes, others have been selected by the designers to harmonize with the soul of the place, in a perfect balance between recovery and contemporaneity. A refined example of how renovation projects can breathe new life into places, preserving their memory intact.

The recovery of the farmhouse and the rebirth of the spaces

The intervention involved the renovation of a farmhouse dating back to 1890, with a careful redefinition of the spaces once used as a garage and stables serving the main house. The project gave rise to a continuous dialogue between architectural volumes and gardens, which follow each other with a natural and harmonious rhythm. The house, thus reinterpreted, warmly opens up to hospitality, thanks to large outdoor spaces that blend with the Apulian landscape. Architects Aldo Flore and Rosanna Venezia sign an intervention capable of combining memory and modernity, giving a new life to the ancient building in the form of a Mediterranean, intimate, and bright residence.
