At the southernmost end of the villas along “Viale Italia” we have this peculiar building: its turret is not high, but absolutely typical.This last villa borders on the trees around the “Caprilli” racetrack.A detail of the top of the turret and an exotic shaped window, quite at odds with the modern rolling shutter.

The light and that sky. Lots of drama.
Well, this does not resemble our new villa at all! Funny how that works. It is a spectacular building and I do love the turret, even if it appears a bit worse for wear and in need of some repairs and some paint.
I'd guess it is rather old, right?
What an interesting building. Appears to have some Moorish influence.
It looks so historical to me...until I see the antenna.
Beautiful building. The sky looks a bit menacing however. Hope it didn't rain on you!
I love dark skies with sunlit foregrounds, and what a foreground it is. This is spectacular. With some of my favorite Italian palm trees, too. What a lovely building! I didn't notice that the shutters were modern, and probably wouldn't have thought of it. You're used to how it should look, but to me it seems to go together OK.
What a great light on a wonderful building. Great shots Vogon!
I love the 'worn" details, not to mention the "moody sky" nice shots!

There is nothing like that here. We don't have palm trees either. The palm in your top photo is beautiful.
Long live all things exotic!
Spectacular sky! Love the contrast between the building, the palm tree and the threatening sky.
This building is a bit bizzare, but I like it - my favourite is the second photo.
Fancy architecture, love the Moorish details!
Fabulous shots.This house is different and the last shot is cool with the details of modern rolling shutter!
BTW,That palm tree is also beautiful!
have a great Sunday dear friends!

la prima foto mi piace particolarmente ha i colori che prediligo e un cielo carico di energia.
ciao simona
Thanks for sharing these beautiful and interesting shots.
Your last photo is my favorite...
Have a nice Sunday!
I really enjoy the composition of the first two photos. Hope you're having a good Sunday.
Is this really the last one? Can you not find us some more? I'm so enjoying this series. The modern shutters don't bother me as much as the state of disrepair.
Nice sky btw, did it pour down?
Such an astounding sky as the background to this little gem. I love the details. The peeling paint only enhances the appreciation for the turret.
Some great architectural details! Maybe the architect thought "more is more?"
The first two photos are gorgeous with the skies create such nice contrast. Is this a residential place today? I was wondering what was used to be the shutter back then before this modern rolling one.
It's an interesting place. I do like the pastel color.
The details are wonderful but the sunny photos with the dark sky are my favourites.
A fantastic series and the second photo is absolutely the most beautiful!
Thanks!
Do people actually live in these beautiful villas today? I guess they must if there's a modern-day shutter in one of the windows. The architecture is so beautiful!
Gorgeous villa. It does need a helping hand in preserving the woodwork. Must cost a lot to maintain something like that.
Nice series which seems to do justice to this beautiful building. It's great that you're showing us the details, this way we can get a better idea of the architecture.
Such an incredible sky!!!!!
And the building and details are great!
