Villa Scott, Art Nouveau villa in Borgo Po district, Turin, Italy

The exterior facade of Villa Scott displays loggias, oriel windows, and stained glass with extensive floral decorations across multiple levels of the structure.

Engineer Pietro Fenoglio designed this residence in 1902 for Alfonso Scott, who served as managing director of the Turin automobile company Rapid.

The villa incorporates architectural elements from both Art Nouveau and Neo-Baroque styles, reflecting influences of Belgian architects Horta and Ankar.

Located at Corso Giovanni Lanza 57, the private residence stands twenty minutes on foot from central Turin, visible only from the exterior.

The property gained recognition as a filming location for Dario Argento's 1975 thriller 'Profondo Rosso' while functioning as a women's college.
