Città della Pieve, Perugia (province)

Similar to a lovely framework, in one of the most wonderful locations of the countryside around Città della Pieve, with infinity view up to Monte Cetona and enjoying an amazing view of the historical center, this project includes a planning and construction restoration of the existing annexes, in order to build a house of about 100 sqm and to restore the quality of the surrounding environment and landscape involving the area of the relics. The restoration of the main building involves the reconstruction of a single aboveground floor which shall be linked to the covered surface of the annexes, and it shall be restored by following the typical architectural features and the materials usually used for rural constructions in that area, such as exposed cladding with bricks and stone, roofing with brand new roman tiles and old tiles preserved in good conditions, wooden window fixtures with external shutters such as 'persiane' or /and large shutters 'mercantile' style, by using natural colours such as chestnut or walnut, doorsteps in bricks and/ or local stone, bricklaying chimney pots, the small windows without shutters but wooden fixtures with external window bars, natural 'cotto' footpaths and /or local stone clinckers, sewage plant and there will be a 'pergola' with wooden structure and covered by lake reeds by also inserting solar panels in order to achieve about 50% of the hot water production.This project involves in each case the environmental and landscaping restoration of the plain area and also the hills around it, by arranging the area where once there were some annexes. Besides the project also implicates planting sufficiently mature local trees and shrubs.
