The building plan which was endorsed by the master builder Serafino Ramacciotti in 1915, presents orderly classical architecture which is characterised by simple symmetrical façades upon which the ceramic frieze is the innovative element in keeping with the style of that time. A typical example of this is the decoration of the small villa: the small cupids, which are spaced with geometric panels which recall the deco style, bear festoons laden with flowers and are outlined by a well defined contour in accordance with the diktat of Modernist graphics.
