The Studio

The Space
Located in the quiet countryside of Tuscany, the studio is a converted 19th-century olive mill. Designed as a clean container for thought, the high-ceilinged halls preserve the raw architectural texture of the past. The limestone walls and concrete floors absorb the dust of marble, charcoal, and dry pigments, serving as an archive of active physical research.
