Pool & Garden

Equilibrium.

Over the years, I designed outdoor spaces in an informal composition of flowers and plants that integrated with the olive grove, trying not to forget that beauty lies in simplicity and I like to recognize myself as a person who respects nature with an attention to its balance.

Here you can relax after a day of sightseeing enjoying the sunset and the view or sunbathe around the pool enjoying the shade of the two gazebos that are comfortably equipped.

Spring

This spring as it comes bursts up in bonfires green,
Wild puffing of emerald trees, and flame-filled bushes,

Thorn-blossom lifting in wreaths of smoke between
Where the wood fumes up and the watery, flickering rushes.

– D. H. Lawrence

Summer

I feel the breath of the summer night,
Aromatic fire:

The trees, the vines, the flowers are astir
With tender desire.

- Elizabeth Drew Stoddard

Autumn

Every leaf speaks bliss to me

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

- Emily Brontë

Winter

When winter-time grows weary, I lift my eyes on high

And see the black trees standing, stripped clear against the sky

- Margaret Widdemer

Sesta Ora

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
