Indirect outdoor lighting is a key design feature on this modern house in Italy, designed by Jacopo Masheroni Architecture.
During the day, the outdoor spaces are covered by the extended roofline, creating a shady spot for relaxing while taking in the view of the garden and the swimming pool.

At night, the house comes alive with hidden lighting that follows the lines of the home, showcasing the straight edges and textures of the white gravel path.

The 52 foot (16m) zero-edge swimming pool is flanked by two cabanas that house lounges with comfortable seating, while the lighting shines through the slat walls.
