When in Rome, do as romans do.
Once Anna Magnani, a great roman actress of the 60’s, said to her makerup: “be careful, do not cover my wrinkles, it took me twenty years to make them”. Every façade in Rome, especially those in the ancient districts full of history, speaks with these words of wisdom. A beauty that can not be reached with any modern architectural arrangement, a beauty that comes directly from the slow passing of time, and that can not be bought with any coin but life itself.
