The birthplace of the Renaissance, Urbino is a walled city in Italy that hasn’t changed much for over 300 years. With the whole city designated a Unesco historical site, regulations on building in the city are prohibitive at best.
The brief was to provide a use for one of the abandoned sites around the city. The solution was to provide a new residence for a gardener and family to tend to the old orchard in the city. Allowing for an abandoned area to be opened up for public use and providing a new, yet traditional facade to a derelict elevation of the city.
