Villa Renovation - Anzio
Complete refurbishment of an 1980s villa into a modern, energy-efficient residence
Initial Condition
The building showed several critical issues both in terms of energy performance and internal layout, with outdated construction and mechanical systems.
Existing State
- Reinforced concrete structure with deterioration of the concrete cover in corner columns
- External brick cladding with visible inconsistencies due to previous non-uniform repairs
- Access ramp to the basement garage undersized and unsuitable for modern vehicles
- Widespread moisture issues on the perimeter walls of the basement level
Intervention
The project involved an integrated upgrade of both the building envelope and systems:
- Structural restoration of columns through removal of deteriorated concrete cover, protective treatment, and installation of insulation panels to eliminate thermal bridges
- Uniform finishing of façades through repainting of the existing cladding
- Construction of an infinity pool with compensation tank located in the former driveway ramp area
- Addition of a solar greenhouse
- Replacement of the heating system with a heat pump
- Installation of underfloor heating integrated with air distribution through suspended ceilings
- Installation of a photovoltaic system with battery storage and solar thermal system for domestic hot water
- Replacement of existing windows with slim-profile aluminum frames
- Construction of a steel canopy for car parking
- Improvement of wall insulation through cavity insulation injection
Result
A fully renovated residence featuring high energy performance, improved living comfort, and a contemporary architectural language.
Villa Renovation - Nettuno
Renovation of a 1960s villa with energy upgrade and spatial reconfiguration
Initial Condition
An outdated building with obsolete systems and an internal layout no longer suited to contemporary living needs.
Existing State

- Original windows never replaced
- Outdated heating system (converted from oil to gas, with 1990s boiler)
- Deteriorated flat roof with exposed waterproof membrane
- Inefficient internal space distribution
Intervention
- Demolition of the existing technical room and removal of roof cornices
- Installation of external thermal insulation (ETICS) on walls and roof
- Implementation of a Mechanical Ventilation System (MVHR)
- Construction of a wooden pergola
- Replacement of heating system with a heat pump
- Installation of underfloor heating integrated with air distribution
- Installation of photovoltaic system with storage and solar thermal system for DHW
- Full replacement of windows with high-performance frames
Result
A fully upgraded building in terms of energy efficiency and functionality, with improved spatial organization and enhanced indoor comfort.
Villa Renovation – Anzio (Interior & Exterior)
Complete customization of a newly built villa
Initial Condition
A newly constructed building lacking architectural identity and equipped with standard systems and finishes.
Existing State

- Limited and non-optimized suspended ceilings
- Outdoor areas not designed
Intervention
- Construction of an infinity pool
- Design and installation of new suspended ceilings
- Lighting design with integrated LED systems (spotlights and strips)
- Construction of a central mezzanine for technical space
- Replacement of heating system with a heat pump
- Integration of radiant and air-based heating/cooling systems
- Installation of MVHR system
- Installation of photovoltaic system with storage and solar thermal system for DHW
- Interior design and material selection
Result
A fully customized residence combining high energy performance with a contemporary and integrated architectural and interior design.
New Villa Construction – Nettuno
Design and construction of a new villa extension
Initial Condition
Plot with an existing building and available additional volume under local “Piano Casa” regulations.
Existing State
- Open space adjacent to the existing building
- Flat terrain
- Possibility volumetric expansion
Intervention
- Design and construction of a new villa connected to the existing building
- Functional layout including residential areas, technical room, and solar greenhouse
- Reinforced concrete structure with pile foundations, vertical elements, and beams, with hollow-core slab floors
- Masonry infill with hollow clay blocks (poroton)
- Pitched roof construction
- High-performance PVC window frames
- Installation of photovoltaic and solar thermal systems with storage
Result
A new, energy-efficient building seamlessly integrated with the existing structure, designed to ensure comfort, sustainability, and high living quality.
