Oreste's Artful Escape: The Green-and-White Clad Ruggeri House in Pesaro

In the heart of Pesaro, Italy, nestled within the Marche region, a three-storey grand villa emerged, born as a sanctuary for a pharmaceutical tycoon and his kin.

Oreste Ruggeri, a man of means in the pharmaceutical industry, crafted the stunning Ruggeri House between 1902 and 1907 as a respite for himself and his family in the picturesque town of Pesaro, Italy. This Art Nouveau masterpiece donned intricate floral stucco carvings, Oreste's own monogram, and a balcony that only added to its grandeur. The house, stood proud at three storeys, displayed a ladyfinger-shaped paint job in both light green and white, much to Oreste's liking. Unfortunately, his life was cut short in 1912.
