When designing this villa to be built along Sardinia’s coastline it was my intention to link it to its geographical and cultural environment using a contemporary and sober language, yet unmistakably Mediterranean and referring to the traditional arts and crafts of this Italian island.

Commonly called “Africa in miniature or all of Africa in one country”, Cameroon is a Central African country that has enormous tourist wealth.
