COLLODI BUTTERFLY HOUSE

COLLODI BUTTERFLY HOUSE

Collodi, Pistoia

2005-2007

 

The “Butterfly House” is the only reconstruction intervention within a wider program of recovery and functional redevelopment of the historical complex of Villa and Giardino Garzoni in Collodi. The internal organization of the complex is structured in such a way as to allow the visit of the greenhouse-museum through a path that winds initially inside the opaque volume, then continues inside the greenhouse between the tanks containing tropical vegetation, and then ends on the belvedere located above the opaque cube.
