When Giorgio and Giulio Angella came to ​​Ostuni, the White City, in search of a unique piece of land, they surely sensed the still breath of time. These trulli among the gnarled trees had fallen to ruin, yet the brothers knew immediately that here they would bring their dream to fruition.

The two Romans, one an architect and the other a real estate expert, wanted to create a nucleus for their families and friends. A place where they could come together with loved ones and wile away the minutes, hours, days; a place where time stands still. They also conceived it as a place of coming together for groups of friends or families; a place for celebrating shared cultural roots and for bolstering interpersonal relationships. The Angella brothers deeply understand the importance of doing so, and created the Ostuni Art Resort with this vision in mind.

After years of painstaking restoration, the resort blends into the landscape as if it had always been a part of it. Following the modern principles of bio-architecture, the brothers placed their trust in local craftsmen, favoring formal harmony and precious materials: there’s hardly a stone or architectural detail about which the brothers do not have a story.
