Project Name	Lanificio25 headquartier of regeration project, Italy
Description	In 2005 I saw the Lanificio for the first time. I didn't know the place, but I had the impression that he wanted to tell me his story. Things speak, says Francesca Rigotti in her book "Il pensiero delle cose" ed. Apogee. It is a monumental complex of the fifteenth century born as a monastery where the priests cultivated medicinal herbs famous in Europe because an underground river, the Sebeto, flows underneath and supplies some underground tanks dug into the tuff. In 1823 the king of Naples gave this building to Baron Sava, who set up there a wool factory. In this "Lanificio" 600 workers worked and it remained in operation for over 100 years. After the unification of Italy it failed. The Lanificio is the cloister of the church of Santa Caterina a Formiello, next to Porta Capuana inaugurated in 1484 to be the most important entrance to the city of Naples. So I bought a part of the building in 2005 and in 2006 I opened the Lanificio25 as arts factory.
