Colonia Principi di Piemonte, Summer camp in Calambrone, Italy

The Colonia Principi di Piemonte features two pavilions arranged parallel to the Mediterranean Sea, connected by a glass-enclosed portico spanning 3,196 square meters.

The Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia bank commissioned this seaside camp in 1932, which operated until 1974 before falling into abandonment.

The complex layout forms the shape of an airplane pointing toward the sea, reflecting its original purpose as a summer retreat for Air Force personnel children.

The facility, located at Viale del Tirreno 74, has been converted into residential apartments following extensive restoration work in the early 2000s.

This summer camp stands as the only example of rationalist architecture among the coastal facilities along the Tirreno Avenue in Calambrone.
