la DARBIA
ONCE A SMALL, RURAL, AGRICULTURAL SETTLEMENT, la DARBIA WAS REDESIGNED BY THE OWNERS GIAN CARLO AND MATTEO WHO, THANKS TO A SENSITIVE VISION AND INTERVENTION BY THEIR ARCHITECTURE STUDIO, HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TRANSFORM IT INTO A SOPHISTICATED YET CASUAL PROPERTY, AN OASIS DEDICATED TO HOSPITALITY.
AS SOMEONE WROTE: "ANYONE WHO HAS SAT ON THAT BENCH IN THE VINEYARD, ABSORBED IN THE VIEW OF THE ENCHANTING LAKE, HOLDING A GLASS OF ROSÉ, HAS FOUND A CORNER OF HAPPINESS."
The 20 dwellings of la DARBIA are distinguished by their layout, furnishings and character, but all overlook Lake Orta and are surrounded by a beautiful park, where woods with centuries-old trees alternate with Mediterranean gardens and a terraced Nebbiolo vineyard.
