In the heart of the Itria Valley, shrouded in the intense light of Apulia, Greencure landscaping, in collaboration with Corsaro Architetti, has signed the Palazzo MC project, the winter residence of a Dutch couple based on the balance between nature and architecture.
In fact, Palazzo MC is a housing regeneration project that transforms a building with a long and narrow floor plan into an airy, green, living space, putting light and landscape at the center of the living experience.
Greencure landscaping transformed the central volume of the building into a double-height vertical garden, capable of regulating microclimate, air quality and natural light.
The patio, the real beating heart of the house, acts like a wind tower: in summer it promotes natural ventilation, in winter it functions as a solar greenhouse that captures and distributes heat.
The space is designed as a poetic and functional indoor jungle, where carefully selected tree, shrub and herbaceous plants coexist to withstand and thrive in an indoor environment. They climb the walls and accompany the suspended staircase as if in a space-time spiral toward the light. A small fountain with aquatic plants further enriches the sensory experience of living, giving natural sounds and movements to the domestic space.
Marilena Baggio, Founder of Greencure landscaping:
“From a technical point of view, we employed state-of-the-art technological systems for water resource management: a certified drainage system (Harpo Verde Pensile) and a mineral substrate with zeolite guarantee sustainability, water saving and maximum efficiency in indoor green management. This is how we achieved the result we set out to achieve, namely a self-sufficient, innovative and sustainable indoor green ecosystem that combines beauty, ingenuity and respect for the environment.”
