An apparently insignificant building in the wood of Craveggiain Val Vigezzo in Piedmont, which can be reached only on foot and, at the time of my inspection, was inhabited by a family of young foxes.

It was so insignificant, that the new owners, fascinated by the “barbie style” of the local buildings and real estate, thought of demolishing it and rebuilding it from scratch. I tried to dissuade them by providing them with a project aimed at making this beautiful mountain hut, which was still original and was cleverly built against the rock, sheltered from the wind, wonderful again.

Providing them with a design and photography simulation was useless, and so they demolished the small building without my help.
