Description

Pinwheel represents an elegant, custom-built, pentagonal dwelling on the picturesque shores of Lake Maggiore. This single-family residence, developed on one level with basement, embodies a design that harmoniously blends geometric forms with its surroundings. Its outer corners are gently rounded, accentuating the fluidity of the pentagonal lines and integrating synergetically with the surrounding nature. The generous vertical glazed openings and 'pinwheel panels', from which it takes its name, not only offer a breathtaking panoramic view outwards, but also emphasise the building's distinctive shapes. Inside, a striking circular skylight illuminates the rooms, while a staircase leads to the basement below. The living room, dining room and kitchen share an open space, while two bedrooms and two bathrooms are discreetly positioned behind partially transparent 'capsules' at the rear. The basement houses a technical room, a storage room and a large area that can be adapted for different purposes, such as an audio-video room or a gymnasium with sauna. The façade, made of elegant white concrete panels, blends harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. Thanks to advanced building technologies, including wooden supporting structures and high-quality insulation materials, equiped with a modern heat pump, the residence offers high energy efficiency all year round. Indoor comfort is ensured by underfloor heating and controlled ventilation. In addition, a project is planned to install an additional carport with integrated photovoltaic panels as a further step towards energy self-sufficiency. The strategic location, a short distance from Luino and Lugano, makes Pinwheel a sought-after choice both as a main residence and as a place to spend holidays. The construction of this extraordinary residence was completed in 2021 by the famous architect , Jacopo Mascheroni, and is now ready to welcome those who appreciate the uniqueness and avant-garde of this extraordinary example of contemporary architecture. Do not hesitate to contact us to arrange a visit and discover the timeless charm of Pinwheel.

Luino is the most important city on the Lombard shore of Lake Maggiore from an industrial, commercial and touristic point of view. It is a typical, elegant Lake town with a quiet Mediterranean habitat. Luino is characterized by history and culture with an inclination for literature. Luino is famous for its wonderful lakeshore dotted with plane-trees and with harmonious palaces architecture. The new lakeside promenade has two playgrounds, an aerial bridge on the Lake, and a beach, “Le Serenelle”, recently certificated for its excellent bathing levels. Another beach, not too far away from Luino, is in Colmegna hamlet, famous for its crystal-clear waters. A walk through the historical centre, with the narrow streets, the Renaissance and Baroque palaces, the arcades of the inner courtyards, the artisan workshops and shops, is also very beautiful. One of the main attractions of Luino is the market on Wednesdays. It is a real weekly fair, with more than 350 stands along the downtown streets and the Lake, where visitors from all over the world come to visit it. The market in Luino is a cosmopolite, picturesque and colourful folkloric show. For sport and Lake lovers, there is also the Upper Verbano Sailing Centre, one of the very first on Lake Maggiore. However, thanks to the capillary transport system offered by Lake Maggiore Navigation you can easily reach the Borromean Islands or the neighbouring Switzerland. Not far from Luino, in Maccagno, we can find the little Forcora Ski Resort, while if you want to enjoy a breath-taking Lake view, then you should definitely plan a trip to Agra and follow the path named “Giro del Sole”. Luino boasts a strategic position thanks to its proximity to Switzerland and to the railway connection to Milan and Canton Ticino.
