Villa Apua, by the Versilia-based studio PAN_Architetti, has been developed through a careful architectural design, sensitive both

to the interests and desires of the clients and to the themes related to the site. The architects have always sought to establish

an intimate relationship with the landscape and the memory of Forte dei Marmi, avoiding self-referential gestures and focusing

on the creation of a space that is both functional and contemplative, integrating nature through a continuous series of green

spaces.

A key element of the project was the desire to make water the protagonist of the space; for this reason, the architects involved

Andrea Lupi from the very beginning of the project, knowing that they could rely not only on the design, experience, technology

and high level of customisation of the collections of a leading company in the sector such as antoniolupi, but above all on the

passion with which the brand approaches every challenge.

Externally, the villa is presented as a simple superimposition and juxtaposition of regular volumes, held together by a horizontal

sign that, to the south-west, defines a large portico typical of Mediterranean culture. The alternation of solids and voids generates

shapes, light and shadows that create unique and varied relationships with the site and the materials used, such as travertine

and wood, harmonizing the volumes with their surroundings.

Beyond the entrance threshold, the space gradually expands from inside to outside: the veranda, garden and swimming pool
