Casa Fenoglio Lafleur

It was built in 1902 by Pietro Fenoglio as his own home. At beginning of 1900 in contrast to most other italian cities, Torino was open to this new European trend called Art Nouveau.

Venne costruita nel 1902 da Pietro Fenoglio come propria abitazione. Rispetto a molte altre città italiane, Torino si rivelò molto aperta alle tendenze Europee del primo novecento e al nuovo stile Liberty.

    I do not have a word for that piece jutting out at the corner, but it's gorgeous! The balconies too!
