| THE VILLA MONASTERO LOGO |
| Accurate reading of the building's history and architectural characteristics
suggested the idea of highlighting, with simple lines, the building's arcades,
which recall the monastic origin of the Villa. Therefore it has been decided
to represent graphically three of them, which recalls the initial letter of
the word "monastery". The green colour of the arches recalls the presence of the garden. The long line underneath refers to the characteristic position of the Villa and its garden opposite the lake; the blue reflections mirroring the three arches define its scenic location. |
