Once past the entrance gate, the house reveals itself discreetly, dominated by the original stone facade that preserves the building\u2019s history and ensures the privacy of the interior spaces. It is only upon rounding the southeast corner that the main architectural gesture \u2014 the expansion of the southern portico with a new double-height glass volume \u2014 unveils, creating\u00a0a fan-shaped opening that frames the greenery and draws in the view, transforming the living area into a bright space.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1151519 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"studio bressan transforms italian farmhouse into residence with double-height glass portico\" width=\"818\" height=\"545\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/studio-bressan-italian-farmhouse-renovation-designboom-02.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>the home is located in the hills of Asolo, Italy<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>living area unfolds as a single fluid space<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Inside, the home\u2019s interiors are warm and bright, defined by a palette of natural and textured surfaces. Floors of oak wood and travertine, light plaster finishes, and exposed beams tell the story of a strong bond with tradition. Natural light enters through wide openings, creating soft atmospheres, while the new portico becomes a living frame that brings the quietness of the hills indoors.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> The spatial organization follows a clear and functional logic: the living area unfolds as a single fluid space with visual continuity to the outside, while the upstairs bedrooms retain a more intimate and reserved character. On the exterior, the exposed stone and pitched roof honor the region\u2019s typical architectural language, while a natural, muted color palette helps the farmhouse blend harmoniously into the surrounding landscape.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1151520 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"studio bressan transforms italian farmhouse into residence with double-height glass portico\" width=\"818\" height=\"955\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/studio-bressan-italian-farmhouse-renovation-designboom-03.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>the architects add a double-height glass extension, opening up the home to light, nature, and panoramic views<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1151521 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"studio bressan transforms italian farmhouse into residence with double-height glass portico\" width=\"818\" height=\"545\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/studio-bressan-italian-farmhouse-renovation-designboom-04.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>this architectural gesture serves as a modern extension of the original dwelling\u2019s traditional covered porch<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FARMHOUSE RENOVATION BY STUDIO BRESSAN \u00a0 Studio Bressan transforms an old rural farmhouse into a contemporary residence, adding&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":100866,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[6324,449,458,459,64,63,460,134,462],"class_list":["post-100865","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-architecture-in-italy","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-residential-architecture-and-interiors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100865","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=100865"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100865\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/100866"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=100865"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=100865"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=100865"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
