"Beginning back in 1993, photographer Oberto Gili and writer Marella Caracciolo Chia embarked on an epic, two-decade-long journey through Italy, from the northwest region all the way down to the country's tip. "'We discovered many beautiful interiors, but what stayed with us were the ones belonging to highly creative individuals,' Caracciolo Chia writes in their new book Domus (Rizzoli, $65), a tour of the very best homes they came across. Of course, Italy is known for its beautiful things (homes and otherwise), but in modern times Gili and Caracciolo Chia had to look a little harder to uncover them. 'Everybody is copying what is trendy, fashionable, and coolfar too often disregarding their roots, culture, and history. Thankfully, there still exists a strong minority who beautifully manage to avoid falling in with the flock,' writes Gili in the forward. 'They live with tremendous authenticity and creativity by embracing their history and cultivating their own culture that reflects their personalities.'"
