The Roccolo House is a fascinating contemporary reinterpretation of a typical building of the Lombard landscape.
To live in a bird catcher hut means to know how to be amazed at nature, to love it and to learn to know it through the concept of emptiness. A vertical place that connects the earth and the cosmos through our souls. Above all, a quiet place that enlightens the mind. A formidable source of inspiration that combines tradition with a contemporary look to the future and reminds us of the transience of life.
A place designed to escape the stress of the urban world, where aesthetic ideals are sublimated in the modesty of simple forms and natural materials, while leaving complexity to nature around us.
“A place that emphasizes the importance of living in the moment. To tightly grasp every minute spent on this earth and to appreciate the ephemeral nature of everything in this world”. (Axel Vervoordt)
