==Architecture==
The architect describes this house as a conceptual celebration of [[dust]].  Its design draws inspiration from primordial [[caverns]], Renaissance [[grottos]], the [[nymphaeum]] of Rome’s [[Villa Doria Pamphilj]] and the faint Liberty facades along [[Via Veneto]]. Furthermore, it explores the idea of buildings as instruments for [[light]] creation, emphasising the importance of opaque materials in architecture to capture and manipulate light.

House of Dust is an architectural work built in 2013 in Rome, designed by the Italian architect Antonino Cardillo.

Architecture

The architect described this house as a conceptual celebration of dust. Its design draws inspiration from primordial caverns, Renaissance grottos, the nymphaeum of Rome’s Villa Doria Pamphili and the faint Liberty facades along Via Veneto.
