A few kilometers from Villa d’Este, the project for Villa Candida harmonises historical preservation with modern-day needs and client preferences. Drawing from Burle Marx’s and Art Nouveau’s organic forms, the garden integrates art and nature to honour the villa’s cultural significance while incorporating contemporary elements discreetly. The design process balances cultural integration, sensory engagement, and site-specific challenges to achieve a cohesive final outcome, creating a timeless space that unifies diverse influences
