March 13, 2024

During the day, this church offers stunning views of Lake Tekapo and New Zealand‘s Southern Alps. When it was constructed in 1935, the church was intended to blend in with its surroundings.

Mackenzie Castle in Genoa, Italy

March 13, 2024

This remarkable building in Genova, northern Italy, was designed by Gino Coppedè at the instigation of Scottish businessman Evan Mackenzie. This insurance magnate was a “hands-on” client and the form of the building as we see it is owed much to the changes of mind and requests made by Mackenzie during the building phase. Much of the interior woodwork was produced by a firm owned by Coppedé’s family. After its completion in 1905, it remained a family home for...
