Houses No: 399 Casa Tabarelli Location: Bolzano, Italy Year: 1968 Architect: Carlo Scarpa ⠀ Casa Tabarelli, is an architectural treasure designed by the master architect Carlo Scarpa and his longtime collaborator, Sergio Los for close friends Laura and Gianni Tabarelli in 1968. Hidden on the slopes of the vineyard village of Cornaiano near Bolzano, Italy, the house has rarely been seen by the public and was sold by the family in 2011. Scarpa’s masterful design is complemented by equally-iconic furnishing with pieces by Marcel Breuer, Josef Albers, Man Ray and Marcel Duchamp. The audio system placed in the dining room is one kf the highlights. The “stereo radiophonograph” RR126 was designed by celebrated Italian industrial designers Achille Castiglioni and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in 1965 and manufactured by Brionvega, S.p.A. The RR126 is a high-fidelity stereo. ⠀ 📸 Photos by Ilaria Orsini, Jonathan Frantini via @kellybehunstudio @piecederesistance @studio_magga @object.limited ______________________________________ ⠀ ❓How do you like the design of Casa Tabarelli?
