Condominio in viale Roma

Condominio in viale Roma is a modern residential building in Marina di Massa with a rectangular layout, two floors, and a distinctive circular entrance hall topped by a copper-covered dome above the stairwell. The complex contains seven apartments total, with four units on the ground level and three on the upper story, along with private parking and garden areas.

Architect Ettore Sottsass designed this residential complex in 1985 as an expression of architectural renewal in the Tuscan coastal region. The project emerged during a period when modern design in Italy was exploring fresh approaches to residential architecture.

The building expresses a distinctive approach to modern Italian residential design through bold color choices and geometric forms. Visitors can observe the unusual combination of glass, cement blocks, and playful details that shape daily life in this residential complex.

The building sits near parking areas and features an easily recognizable circular entrance that makes it simple to locate and enter. The surrounding area provides convenient access to the gardens and allows for easy movement around the complex.

The east-facing facade displays an unexpected circular projection and a spacious first-floor terrace with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that open to the outdoors. This design feature creates a flowing connection between interior and exterior spaces that defines the modern living experience.
