Minimalism in Stone: A Sanctuary in the Tuscan Countryside | Wildfarm Volterra

ByMyProperty Life

Tucked away in the rolling hills near Volterra, Wildfarm Volterra is a striking fusion of rustic tradition and contemporary minimalism. Designed by Studio Milani, this countryside retreat transforms an old rural stone unit into a refined sanctuary, where travertine, corten steel, and glass connect old and new. The house unfolds as a composition of monolithic volumes, framed by olive trees, woodland, and distant sea views. With panoramic corten-framed windows, an infinity pool, and a garden that changes with the seasons, this Tuscan home redefines modern rural living. Discover how architecture, landscape, and light come together in perfect harmony.

  • Burnt Cedar

    This is a full-time beach house for a car passionate family of four situated across from Burnt Cedar Beach in Incline Village, Nevada on the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Prior to being pulled up the hill to flumes and rails destined for Virginia City, logs were staged here as the mountains around the lake shore were logged during the silver mining years of the 1860s. Set into a neighborhood originally built in the 1950s and bordered by houses to the sides and rear, the house takes a simple box form, half buried into the slope. It faces the lake with full height glazing that encloses a loft-like plan with double height living spaces. The clients requested a space that felt like the landscape and maintained a feeling inside of being outside in the light and shadow play of the sixty to ninety-foot Jeffrey and Ponderosa pines that populate the lake shore.  Perforated wood ceilings and acoustical plaster walls soften the sounds of the concrete and glass pavilion-like house. An underground garage is excavated under the house with level access to the street, a must in this snowy climate for a family with an eclectic car collection.
