Renovation of Villa Morra di Lavriano by Francesca Colelli
Villa Morra di Lavriano in Cortona, Italy, was completely renovated by Francesca Colelli in 2022.
Description
The renovation of Villa Morra di Lavriano starts in the year 2020, from the need on the part of the property to allocate some rooms of the large historic mansion to one of the children, whose demands were to try to be able to bring back the usability of the spaces with the aim of making them livable and at the same time trying to respect the characteristics of the property.
In a particular way, the rooms characterized by the intervention are part of some rooms, the so-called former guest quarters, consisting on the ground floor of two large rooms, and on the first floor of two rooms, a bathroom, and the creation of a new access that allowed us to include to the area of the former guest quarters some rooms of the Villa, to make the Master Bedroom, a bathroom and a walk-in closet. Villa Morra di Lavriano is located in Metelliano near Cortona (AR). It takes its name from the Morra family of Piedmontese origins, whose son Umberto Morra di Lavriano spent the years of fascism in the villa, hosting prominent personalities of anti-fascist culture, including Alberto Moravia, Renato Guttuso, Cesare Luporini, Guido Calogero and Aldo Capitini.
The works on the ground floor, involved the opening of a large archway to connect the two rooms, the construction of new fixtures, sandblasting works of the terracotta vaults, the construction of plasterboard again...
