Designed by architect Cini Boeri, this wonderfully unique home in Sardinia is tilted forward to better show off the panoramic views of its incredible surroundings. Created to make the most of indoor-outdoor living, it's also cleverly constructed to keep the south-facing areas cool and shaded, shielding your from the heat of the Sardinian sun. While the stark grey facade and sharply angled lines make a breathtaking first impression, we think the interiors speak for themselves too. We love how the architect decided to show off the incredible landscape of La Maddalena by creating a picture frame out of every window – each one set at the exact right height to maximise the impact. There’s even a telescope in the study so you can explore the area from the comfort of your own home, or go full Rear Window and see what your neighbours are up to down in the harbour. The muted grey tones of the exterior are mirrored in the contemporary kitchen, while the dining room is framed by floor-to-ceiling windows offering the best views in the house. Outside, you’ll find a wooden deck that’s perfect for morning coffees, evening cocktails, and everything in between.

About Italy
With the most UNESCO sites in the world, Italy’s history radiates from every hilltop town, Roman ruin, and protected city centre. The capital, Rome, is home to iconic sights like the Colosseum, Vatican and Roman Forum which feature in every “round the world” montage you’ve seen in the movies. While the Tuscan gem of Florence has Rennaisance artworks packed into sprawling Baroque museums. In the North, the Dolomites and Italian...
