Overview

Explores the elements of history, design, and practicality that come together in houses across the Italian countryside. Some of the houses explored are family homes converted from farmhouses and agricultural buildings; some are grander houses that have been in the owners¹ families for decades or even centuries. Details of style vary from region to region and owner to owner, but the feeling is always distinctly Italian. Stone basins, beamed ceilings, terracotta tiles used on floors and work surfaces, carved wood, decorative paintwork, furniture grand and rustic -- these are some of the details that contribute to the overall picture of Italian country style. Illus.
