Edoardo Milesi The Inhabited Roccolo Private House
The Inhabited Roccolo Private House is Silver Design Award winner in 2020 - 2021 Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award Category.
The Inhabited Roccolo Private House

Inhabited Roccolo is a contemporary reinterpretation of a "roccolo", a typical bird catcher hut of the Lombard Alps landscape that combines tradition with a contemporary look to the future. It was designed to escape the stress of the urban world, where aesthetic ideals are sublimated in the modesty of simple forms and natural materials, while leaving complexity to nature around it, a vertical place that connects the earth and the cosmos through the soul. The morphological discontinuity of the fronts, made up of heterogeneous volumes and different materials, characterise the project.

He is an expert in the field of landscape and environmental protection, he has achieved specialization in numerous fields, including ecology in architecture, religious architecture and garden art.

He has always maintained that being an architect means dealing with man and his life in the complex cycles of nature. In addition to his professional practice, he constantly participates in cultural debate about contemporary architecture and is interested in disseminating and discussing his own experiments. In 2008, together with a group of artists and architects, he founded the magazine ArtApp, of which he is editor-in-chief. In 2014, he founded the cultural association Scuola Permanente dell’Abitare (Permanent School of Living).
