Mecozzi Verdini has designed the extension of the Red Annexe in the Marche region of Italy.

The extension project of a traditional 1960s countryside villa in Marche became an opportunity to carry out a conversion project that indissolubly links the simplicity of rural life with a more contemporary way of living.

"The intervention tells a story of continuity and innovation, where past and present engage in dialogue with the surrounding landscape, breathing new life into a place rich in memories and traditions," said Mecozzi Verdini.

As a result, the Red Annexe extension discreetly references an almost brutalist aesthetic, while maintaining a strong connection with the surrounding rural landscape.
