The context in which the group of rural cottages is inserted is of particular environmental landscape suggestion. Nestled completely in the greenery, propped up by rural shelters, this heritage of peasant culture, after an obvious state abandoned by years, needs a recovery intervention that is an example of an incentive for the survival of a historical-architectural and environmental heritage that would otherwise be lost. By demonstrating the correct possibility of a concrete reuse of the rural complex, we propose systems and ways of life which, despite the culture of modernization, continue to be increasingly appreciated by a large part of the population who are ill suitable to live in pseudo-modern architectural structures.
The conditions of abandonment in which the whole complex had been neglected led to a costly but interesting commitment to the recovery of the same. Recovery is important for the preservation of the historical-landscape environment in which the houses are inserted, which is often raped by unsuitable transformations and especially by very questionable choices and personal taste that have no relation with a correct interpretation of recovery and restoration with any modern additions and adjustments compatible with the existing, such as additions of balconies unqualified for style and proportions, plasters without any tradition, cornices in c.a. al place of the original ones often with romanelle, colors unrelated to the context, eaves and rainforests of poor material, covers with materials other than the original clay cups, fixtures with different materials than the original wooden ones, and other solutions that do not have never been suggested by competent and sensitive designers and administrations. Although tourism and construction speculation have led to the destruction of some magnificent natural habitats, in recent years the awakening of ecological consciousness has encouraged the creation of natural parks and the establishment of national and to prevent further damage to the environment. The buildings, once a farmer’s retreat, will be used as a accommodation facility.
