We visit two wineries, Rocca di Frassinello in the Maremma, near Grosseto in the southern part of Tuscany, and the famous Antinori winery in the heart of the Chianti Classico zone.

In 1949 Giulio Castelli had a great idea: to bring into Italian homes objects that were useful, but also beautifully designed. The Kartell brand came onto the market.

When innovation and sustainability meet, creative projects emerge. International designers, carefully chosen materials, and strategies give life to quality products to show the whole world.

EMU specializes in furniture for the outdoors. But it got its start in post-war Italy by designing metal desks for schoolrooms.

Designers come from all over the world to maintain an international style. Production is carried out almost exclusively in the plant located in Umbria but most of what is produced will go to markets abroad.

Architect Enza Martellota explains the origins of the trullo and how it developed over time.

Apulia is famous for the characteristic trullo. But another typical building is the lamia, a rural building with a square base, sloping dry stone walls and a roof usually made with a lowered barrel vault or a dome. This characteristically simple construction consists of a single room, used as a temporary shelter for the farm's agricultural workers or storage. Today, many of these farms have been transformed into hotels.
