A Concrete Extension on Lake Maggiore
A few steps away from the main house, a ‘Ticino rustico’, a traditional stone-built hut that is common in the region, was converted into a guest room with ensuite bathroom. In juxtaposition to its dry-stone and board-formed concrete exterior, the hut’s timber-clad interior makes for a minimalist yet cosy hideaway where the views of the lake take centre stage thanks to wall-to-wall patio doors opening up onto a small balcony – for as is the case with the main house, Lake Maggiore has always been the entire property’s raison d'etre.
