House Bossi, Novara, Neoclassical residential building in Novara, Italy
The three-story residence features a symmetrical facade with refined architectural details and stands at the highest point of the city center.
In 1857, nobleman Luigi Desanti commissioned architect Alessandro Antonelli to transform an existing Baroque structure into this neoclassical residence.
The building combines traditional Italian architectural elements with innovative structural solutions that influenced 19th-century civil architecture in northern Italy.
The building underwent renovation in 1999 to repair its roof and currently hosts cultural events, art exhibitions, and guided tours.
The residence maintains a visual connection with the San Gaudenzio dome, creating a harmonious architectural dialogue in the urban landscape.
