Colonia Torino, Former children's holiday camp in Marina di Massa, Italy.

The complex consists of six rectangular pavilions connected by porticoes and arranged around garden areas near the Tuscan coastline.

Architects Ettore Sotsass and Alfio Guaitoli designed this summer camp in 1936, which opened in 1938 to accommodate 800 children and 200 girls.

The structure incorporates Carrara marble tiles in its decorative elements, reflecting the architectural preferences and materials of the Tuscany region.

Located at via Bondano a mare 51 along the Lungomare, the building spans over 200 meters with four floors of accommodation spaces.

The pavilions feature circular windows alternating with rectangular ones across the facade, creating a distinct pattern in the Mediterranean sunlight.
