  Description

  Hi there! I am Riccardo, 41 years old, an architect and artist who lived in London for 8 years and now back in Italy in a small village surrounded by mountains and lakes. I live with Katie, My english girlfriend (photographer and filmmaker ) and our 5 year old son Julian and Lupa (border collie).
  
  - Looking for help on furniture making in particular with the charring technique , the ancient art of preserving timber using fire.
  - Looking for help to work on a land and on a refurbishment of a rural house, used as stable until 5 years ago.
  - Looking for help in our Garden and building a treehouse for our son!
  - Graphic design / website design - this is something we would like to update this year.
  
  The land (2000sqm) is 5 min walk away from my village, Ornavasso, and it has been abandoned with no maintenances. I am cleaning it from wild plants and would like to plant new fruit trees and let wild flowers to grow.
  There are also very old stone walls that need to be restored and an important fence around one side of the property.
  
  The little house need the roof to be re-made, all the services (plumbing works mainly) and all the interiors (mainly timber work). I am in the process of designing the refurbishment. I want it to be an icon of my idea of architecture.
  
  Any person interested in one of the above jobs will be welcomed. I am looking for motivated people with great skills, experience and friendly to work with.
  
  Also looking for talented and creative people to join me on design and architectural projects.
  
  Thank you!!
  
  Riccardo
