Turin also has an amazing live house, which curious travelers definitely have to see. It was built in 2012. The author of the project of the unusual residential complex is the well-known architect Luciano Pio. The residence consisting of 63 apartments is 7 500 square meters. Its facade is decorated with amazing natural plants and flowers. Among them, you can see lush bushes, real trees, and the composition of climbing plants. All the greenery on the facade is planted in special containers.
The very design of the building is also quite unique. It has an asymmetrical shape, and below you will notice unusual props that resemble roots. The facade is decorated with wooden shingles, which also make the buildings look natural and quite striking. You can admire the house for ages. Some compositions feature impressive scale. The height of the largest is 8 meters.
The design was created by professional florists and gardeners. They chose plants in such a way that decorations on the facade are green in both summer and winter. To ensure optimum care, it was equipped with a special irrigation system based on fuel pumps. The facade features a special system for collecting rainwater for plants. The amazing house is notable for the unique design of the adjacent territory too. A nice recreation area with swimming pools and landscaped decorations is set directly down the residence.
