In their renovation of the interiors, the architects have kept the original layout
MAB Arquitectura, the Italian studio, has restored an early twentieth-century aristocratic residence surrounded by terraces tiled in blue majolica, featuring large windows and finely decorated ceilings, mixing its original details with contemporary uses and functions.Villa Liberty, reminiscent of the architecture of Palermo’s holiday homes, has been reinterpreted by MAB Arquitectura around a concept based on ‘summer living’, enhancing its relationship with its surroundings, the garden, and the sea thanks to simple lines and large windows framing the views of the Gulf of Mondello, while adding refined yet colourful eclectic furnishings and accessories.
Surrounded by an Italian-style garden with century-old trees, the villa covers more than 400 square metres, developed around the staircase turret. The latter has a wooden coffered roof and a colourful twentieth-century stained glass window by Pietro Bevilacqua depicting two peacocks, a symbol of eternity and beauty and typical of the Sicilian Liberty style.
