The area is strongly characterized by its territory and its color palette: the greens of the Mediterranean scrub and olive groves, the red earth, the warm shades of limestone, the dazzling white of the walls painted in lime, the intense blue of the sea, and the light of the south that envelops everything.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn recent years, Salento has been discovered by an international public that understands its uniqueness and has chosen it as an ideal place for a retreat. Rural houses and old buildings have been carefully restored and transformed into private homes of great beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book selects some of the most elegant and original of these: farms and historic buildings that differ in terms of their age, style, and taste, but all of which are imbued with the Mediterranean charm of that preserved corner of Puglia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll the homes have been freshly photographed by Filippo Bamberghi, with views and decorative details of the houses and glimpses of the surrounding landscape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA text by journalist Patrizia Piccinini, based on interviews with the owners of the houses, recounts the history of the buildings, the genesis of the projects, and the bond between the owners and the territory.\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN13: 9788891843135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumber of Pages: 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEdition: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication Date: 15 Jul 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Rizzoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication City, Country: Italy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions (cm): 30.5(H)x23.9(L)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight (gm): \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cb\u003eLuciana Di Virgilio \u003c\/b\u003efounded Di Virgilio Veneziano with artist Gianni Veneziano as a studio for interior and product design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFilippo Bamberghi\u003c\/b\u003e is a Milan-based architecture, interiors, and portrait photographer.
