About
Visit La Velarca, designed and built between 1959 and 1961 by the BBPR studio. Commissioned by Emilio and Fiammetta Norsa, this floating home is a notable work of architecture and design. Its form and layout reflect the BBPR studio's signature style, focusing on environmental integration, local context, and meticulous detailing. La Velarca combines modern aesthetics with historical elements. The structure was added to the hull of a historic 19-meter gondola called "Corriera Tremezzina," which has been crossing Lake Como since 1911, carrying goods and passengers. Explore how this unique home connects past and present on the scenic lake.
