Casa Giglio: Monograph (2026–ongoing) is a digital publication documenting the house’s gradual transformation. It operates simultaneously as archive, research framework, and spatial record. The monograph brings together drawings, interior studies, material tests, site observations, photographs, and short written reflections.
Rather than presenting a completed narrative, the publication tracks the work as it unfolds. Content is structured to be reorganised, layered, and revisited over time. The monograph examines the house through its spatial, material, and environmental conditions, situating the restoration within broader questions of habitation and regional life in Southern Italy. Documentation is approached as part of the design process itself: a method for thinking through the project as it evolves.
