renovation of a
nineteenth-century building

cavenago brianza (mb)
2002

The building to be renovated is a nineteenth-century manor house, which is part of a large complex used as one of the oldest silk spinning factories in this area of the Lombard countryside, located between Bergamo and Milan. The overwhelming competition from eastern countries has made the fabrics produced in this area unmarketable. However, the tradition of silk production in the Como area still lives on.
