"HOUSE IN THE PARK"
In the center of Carpi, 2 minutes by bike from Piazza dei Martiri and 10 minutes on foot from Palazzo dei Pio, on the pedestrian avenue inside the Resistenza park, a 746 square meter plot hosts a three-storey house built in 1965 and extensively renovated between 2012 and 2023. The house was built by the family of a marble worker who worked and lived there. Particularly appreciating its location, in the center and in the greenery, the grandchildren began a progressive redevelopment.
Carpi has gradually conquered the limelight of the global textile industry, becoming an important commercial hub, benefiting from enlightened entrepreneurs, the motorway toll booth on the Modena - Brennero axis (8 minutes from the house) and the railway station which today boasts services with the Frecciarossa which in a few hours it takes you to Bologna Florence Rome.
GARDEN
The renovation followed a bottom-up logic and first of all we worked on the garden, entrusting the design to the engineer. Ivano Fieni (landscape designer and greenery consultant). Before carrying out the interventions on the greenery, the black and white sewers were completely redone, the foundations and the subsoil were reclaimed (excessive cementing, an underground tank of diesel fuel and residual marble), the electrical pipes for lighting the garden were inserted, the sandstones for pavements and pavements and gravel areas.
The garden project maintained the pre-existing tall trees for "historical" reasons, including a specimen of yew (Taxus baccata), two palms (Chamaerops excelsa) and two magnolias (Magnolia grandiflora), inserting a birch (common birch) privacy of the rooms facing south and an oak (Quercus robur) closing in perspective the entire garden on the north corner.
To shield the buildings on the south and east sides, and as a prospective backdrop to the project, an evergreen and very fragrant laurel hedge (Laurus nobilis) was planted and common ivy (Hedera helix) was maintained in the remaining perimeter, placed on the mesh of confine.
The garden has been equipped with an irrigation system.
GROUND FLOOR
The ground floor of the house, intended for commercial use, until a couple of years ago home to a yoga studio and now rented to a tattoo studio, consists of two large open spaces and a small bathroom.
Energy improvement interventions have been carried out in these rooms (thermal break windows and ducted UTA air treatment system).
