The project of a lifetime
Live The Ideal Town and discover why it is a one-of-a-kind work.
A work of architecture and patience
The Ideal Town is a miniature historic city at 1:25 scale, conceived and entirely built by a single author over more than 25 years. It is not a scale model, not a diorama, not a model railway: it is a complex and coherent work where streets, complexes, palaces, sewer networks, woods, fields and mountains merge into a single creation, born from a personal vision and a love for architecture, art and history.
The intent
Creating an ideal town
The idea of a town that doesn't exist, yet contains everything historic architecture has to offer at its best: proportions, materials, light, shadow, silence. An imaginary place where every building is the result of a real study.
The elements
What defines the town
Historic palaces, monuments, facades, domes, bell towers, streets, squares, waterways, bridges, vegetation, landscapes. Every element is designed, built and perfectly integrated.
The intent
Offering historic and cultural value
The Ideal Town transcends the boundary of model-making to enter the territory of art and applied architecture. It is a project that requires engineering expertise, aesthetic sensibility, historical knowledge, and extraordinary dedication.
The dimensions
At 1:25 scale
At 1:25 scale, a building 10 meters tall becomes 40 centimeters. Every brick, every cornice, every window keeps real proportions. This scale allows an extraordinary level of detail but demands extreme construction precision.
