Lume delle Tremiti aims to transform the historic Faro di San Domino into a sanctuary that embodies both physical and spiritual guidance. While the lighthouse has traditionally served as a beacon for ships, Lume redefines it as a metaphorical inner light that guides individuals towards self-reconnection and introspection.

The project focuses on creating a refuge that promotes physical and mental well-being, offering a tranquil space for visitors to disconnect from everyday life and reconnect with nature. This transformation respects the lighthouse’s original architecture while enhancing its historical value through the use of noble, local materials like stone and wood. The use of materials is chosen to preserve the lighthouse’s authentic character and integrate it seamlessly with its surroundings.

Lume stands as a symbol of both tangible and spiritual illumination, serving not just as a navigational aid but as a space where one can find inner peace and harmony.

The project combines architectural preservation with the creation of a serene retreat, honoring the lighthouse’s legacy while offering a new dimension of spiritual and ecological connection.

The interior design of Lume combines Mediterranean minimalism with a refined Italian palatial style. This blend creates a unique and harmonious environment that embodies both simplicity and elegance.

The integration of these styles results in a space that is both serene and sophisticated. The minimalistic aspects ensure a peaceful retreat, while the palatial details provide a sense of grandeur and timeless beauty. This thoughtful design approach enhances the lighthouse’s role as a refuge, offering visitors a space where they can experience both modern simplicity and classical elegance, reflecting the dual nature of Lume as both a physical and spiritual guide.
