A Tuscan Adventure: Castello di Potentino: The Restoration of a Castle

539,00 kr.

When Charlotte Horton and her family of British bohemians discovered an abandoned Tuscan castle, little did they know that they would transform it into a vibrant, modern locale, Nestled in the rugged terrain of Mount Amiata, Castello di Potentino was a dilapidated mess: roofs had collapsed and there was no plumbing or electricity, Following the arduous process of purchasing it from 22 different owners, they set to work renovating the eleventh-century structure, In this enthralling account of revamping the castello into a contemporary ode to Italian tradition, photographs by the late British fashion photographer Michael Woolley showcase the property, while Horton s text dives into the renovation and life at Potentino, From a dramatic vaulted entrance hall to a starry ceiling mural, the interiors are bound to delight, Readers also learn about technical details, such as recycling materials and painting, A chapter dedicated to the land complete with a vineyard and olive groves displays Horton s philosophy of self-sufficiency, This book is a must-have for those interested in Italian architecture and the Tuscan lifestyle, or anyone with the dream of restoring a tower in Tuscany,
