Casa Malaparte

When I was a teenager I saw a BBC documentary on the Casa Malaparte.

It was built on the island of Capri in 1937 by Italian architect Adalberto Libera. The house was also featured in the Jean Luc Godard film, Le Mepris, or Contempt.

I've never been so infatuated with a house. I thought it looked like a De Chirico painting come to life.
