Homes in Sardinia: Exclusive Villas on the Costa Smeralda (Architettura Dei Luoghi) (English and Italian Edition)

By Giuliana Bianchi and Giancarlo Gardin

My passion is photography; photography of homes and gardens, trying to describe, in images, the stories they have to tell. Initially I decide how to build up a visual journey through the internal and external rooms. Detail and views are integral to this journey together with photographic skills and techniques. Owners and designers work in harmony at the outset of each project. The story is different every time, from the minor anecdotes at the beginning and the time of photographic narration lasts not only from dawn to dusk, but at times extends for days. But the real story, which only those who have seen me taking photographs, is that I use special cameras I have created and built specially. They now have a definite identity; called "Free Eye", they are produced and marketed for both amateur and professional photographers. The book should therefore be seen from a dual point of view because it expresses a composite itinerary in contemporary architecture, limited to a specific place, the Gallura region, where there have been significant experiences in modern architecture, almost unique of their kind. I have been able to work there from the very beginning, covering twenty years of habitual visiting as photographer with an increasingly close relationship!
