Boccamonte

Design studio
Boccamonte was founded in 2023 by Maddalena Scarzella and Matteo Petrucci as a space for hospitality and cultural production, set in the houses and landscapes designed by architect Luisa Castiglioni in the 1960s, in the woods of Bocca di Magra, Liguria. Continuing to collect and highlight the rich and multifaceted legacy of this 20th-century architect and designer, Boccamonte has since evolved into a design platform. Through archival research and a renewed practice of inhabitation, it brings selected works from the Luisa Castiglioni Archive back into production, while developing new designs rooted in the site’s architectural and cultural history.
