Lake House Chic
Dolce Vita by the lake
A green oasis with vintage charm – La Foleia seems like something out of a dream. Yet paradise is within easy reach, not far from Lake Maggiore in the north of Italy.
Recently renovated, the site is the ‘mad’ – Foleia is Latin for ‘folly’ or 'madness' – idea of two architects who set out to build a charming, luxurious holiday home in a former woodland area. Fed by the Ticino River's own spring, they have created a large lake, at the end of which two enchanting villas face each other.
Just like the exterior, the interior of the two villas looks like something from another world. Opulently decorated walls continue the picturesque lake theme indoors, with decorative pieces picking up on the colours. The beige-coloured sofa creates an inviting haven of peace.
In the dining area of one of the two villas, the Mediterranean nuances harmonise beautifully with the colours of nature, visible all around through the large windows. Furniture with Art Deco charm provides the necessary glamour.
Vintage vases can be found throughout the two villas. They add harmonious colour accents, resemble artistic sculptures, and seem to tell a story of their own – whether made from fine porcelain or rustic ceramics.
Each villa has two bedrooms, individually furnished with great attention to detail. How can you bring the look into your own home? Opulently decorated cushions and rattan furniture are a good place to start.
