Enoteca dai Tosi

Belgian studio architecten de vylder vinck taillieu designed and gave life to a winehouse that is perfectly immersed in the history and the time of Matera.

architecten de vylder vinck taillieu designed a winery in Matera, which extends throughout the three levels of a cave. The Belgian studio designed and gave life to a place that is perfectly immersed in the history and the time of the city, which develops both as an architectural environment built for the needs of man and as a natural element, a cave, a Matera “sasso”. The main challenge was to design something from a pre-existing historical and cultural heritage: exploiting the Matera nature of the area, observing the city and the buildings that have arisen and evolved within the caves throughout the centuries.

The studio decided to interpret the city and its forms, in a dialogue with the location, in order to be able to interpret it and thus restore an environment that could be an architectural and cultural synthesis. Matera is visible in the design elements themselves, such as in the tu stairs, the terracotta tiles and spiral handrails, in the colours of green for the doors and the beige of the stone, and the materials, being the stone the main material of the houses and the wood of the roofs, distinguishing the enoteca dai tosi as being in praise of and in tribute to the city of Matera.
