ONE YEAR TIMELAPSE in 45 minutes // COUPLE RENOVATING 100 y.o ITALIAN STONE HOUSE
This is everything we have done so far! Check out our next videos to see the rest of the renovation! 😚
We bought this 75m² stone house in Italy during the pandemic in 2020. The house was a ruin and we saved everything we could, unfortunately that meant only four stone and clay walls 😊 The back wall, against the terrain, was close to collapse; the roof beams were eaten and basically reduced to dust; the inside separation walls... were taken down with a coffee spoon and the whole project turned into a heavy renovation/rebuild.

Being Italian, I am so proud to see a modernized hybrid construction, that fuses new and old, carrying on the beautiful historic Italian stone build tradition! Beautiful, exquisite, craftsmanship. To say build, doesn’t do your work justice. Bravo!
Looking at that scenery i understand what inspired you.
Vittorio Veneto! 🟩🟩⬜⬜🟥🟥
Definitely a work of art. I hate the modern look in a natural place of beauty. You have kept the characters and looks so natural
That the original walls are still standing is a testament to the skill and quality of the craftsmanship of the day.
Только нагнувшись за каждым из тысяч камней, что нужны для строительства дома, понимаешь цену уюта и безопасности.
Только хотела написать это, сколько труда нужно, чтоб построить эти терассы из камней и дом.
Somebody lived in that house long ago. They are gone but the house is still there with so many memories.
Beautiful! It's not a renovation, it's a rebuild respecting the architecture!
Haha yes we took a lot of it down before starting to rebuild!
@@ateliermavi I so agree - a rebuild rather than a renovation. Was that to fulfill the more modern building safety regulations and to insulate and keep warm? Or just a personal choice? A beautiful job thouigh
@@normareed9007 The house was a ruin and we saved everything we could, unfortunately that meant only four stone and clay walls :) The back wall, against the terrain, was close to collapse; the roof beams were eaten and basically reduced to dust; the inside separation walls... were taken down with a coffee spoon; etc until we got to a clean state from which to start working ☺
@@ateliermavi You're doing such a beautiful job of rebuilding it. I trust that your problems with the rebates become history very quickly. ❤❤
I do love watching these type of projects and even though you had to take some of the house down to rebuild, you have both kept the original character of this amazing building. Thank you for sharing it with us to see.
I feel exhausted just watching the video and seeing how much work you’ve put into it. Absolutely brilliant job. Congratulations looking forward to seeing it finished.
Thank you! ☺️
You said it well! Unbelievable amount of work! I was watching and thought my goodness! I'm gonna sleep well tonight just from the exhaustion of watching so much physical labor!!! Love what they did! 😀
😊
Hats off to the original builder(s) who laid every stone by hand AND the brilliant people who understood and preserved the beauty of this monument and the labor and memory of the first builder. Wish I was there to shake your hands.
Amis Italiens, quel travail magnifique vous avez réalisé là, c'est splendide, quel courage, très beau résultat, bravo !!!
Wunderschönes Haus in einer traumhaften Lage, schön, dass man das im Video festgehalten hat, so kann man vielleicht mal Enkelkinder zeigen wie viel Arbeit im Haus steckt.
A real herculean job. Hope you enjoy a happy comfort home when everything is done
Какие прекрасные люди с золотыми руками! Искренне восхищаюсь вами!
The best indicator of how much time has pass is the dog. 🥰
i call that a restoration/renovation--beautiful When visions and dream merge and possibilities happen to come into focus--it is lovely
☺️
Your home renovation is incredible! Such a huge amount of work, manual labor, working with torn stone. This is something unthinkable. It’s scary to imagine how much construction equipment cost in this region. I hope you enjoy your stay in this house. The views from the windows are gorgeous. Special thanks for the drone footage.
Sicilia needs more people that are willing to work hard like this with these very old homes. I saw how many homes are just sitting there empty for years. People can sell or rent them. 😊
Then give them money.
@@JShepLord OK, who do we give the money to?
I envy you. Great job with everything you have done. Beautiful country, and Italian is a beautiful language. ❤️ 🇮🇹
Thank you ☺️
What a stunning location , there is love and respect gone into this , vision to restore it so sympathetically. Well done and every best wish for the ongoing work. Wonderful video thanks. ☘️🇮🇪👏👍
Thank you for watching! ☺️
Потрясающая работа!!! Столько труда и сил вложено. Вы достойны уважения и у вас золотые руки!!!
Thank you very much 💞
為了保留石屋百年歷史,意大利人的付出,令人我佩服。🎉
Аплодисменты ! Ребята,вы герои ! Это победа,титанический труд ! Привет из России ! Applause ! You guys are heroes ! This is a victory, a titanic work ! Greetings from Russia!
Roof, inside walls, cleaning the outside walls, ground, new wall, you have done a lot!
A masterpiece from stone, you worked so hard to create it.
Вы, ребята, проделали гигантскую работу. Благодаря молодости и оптимизму, веры в себя
Wow! The commitment to excellence in this restoration is outstanding! It’s beautiful. It’s incredible to think that someone first built this 100 years with the tools available at the time. Thank you so much honoring what they created and do bringing it back to life.
Thank you! ☺️
I was absolutely carried away watching your creation unfold. Such a testament to the human spirit , such vision to see the old crumbling dwelling and utterly transform it while still retaining itself . I came across this as one does , having missed the previous videos . I look very much forward to seeing the next episodes .
Восхищаюсь людьми которые не бояться трудностей☝️сколько же труда и ньюансов🙏дай бог вам крепкого здоровья!!!
🙏🏼Thank you
so...technically you bought a wonderful piece of terrain with 4 walls and a lot of trash... ;) Very nice video and hard work :)
Hope you show another update with the interior complete as well. Hope the inside is as gorgeous as the outside! I didn’t see any plumbing or electric go in. Great job! 🎉💗
thank you!! Yes, we’ll try to post a video each week 🦄
yes.. me neither. i was came to the comments to see if there are any info on that.
Restoration - use original shape and form, preferrably also methods to make look like new (this is usualy done on protected, historical buildings) Renovation - is making look new, but bringing new forms, styles or methods during the process (most general building updates) Rebuild - using the basic stucture, changing layout, changing structures, changing landscape etc. What you are doing is a rebuild, but I am truly impressed at how many old-school methods are being used. Especially the floor aeration, you barely see that nowadays. Great job, looking forward to see the end result!
There were cracks in the new installed wall blocks near the roofline already. They didn't show they replaced them, so they just bricked the cracked ones in? A little scarey. I'm only asking because Italy is very prone to earthquakes.
I'm in love with these old stone houses. Thankyou!
Thank you for doing such a great job and for sticking with historic architecture! The house looks amazing!
Long extensive work guys…you put in your heart n soul….blood sweat n tears…..your accomplishment is rewarding…well done guys!
thank you! 🌿
Фантастический объем работ, желание, трудолюбие, упорство и смелость. А еще все это снять....восхищен вами. Желаю вам огромного счастья.
That's amazing work, the concrete retaining wall merge the existing main house perfectly, and the roofing work is also nice. Very beautiful Italian stone style.
Вложен огромный труд, здоровья ребятам
Υπέροχη Εργασία !!!! Υπήρχαν και μερικά λαθάκια και "παρασπονδίες", αλλά γενικά ήταν μια υπέροχη εργασία επισκευής και ανακατασκευής, υποδειγματική και ορθολογισμένη. Μπράβο σας
Damn!! Imagine the lives of the people that lived there and all the memories ❤ I love your work guys 😊
Stunning!! The transformation so far is amazing. Such hard work & dedication going into this beautiful dream home!! Enjoy watching and thanks for sharing!! 👍🙏
Thanks a lot! ☺️
Hello there. I like your random stone walling. I'm retired now but that's what I did for my living for 50 years. I can see you are doing a good job.
"the innocence of the youth"! worth every bit of it!
Did you know about Raising Voyagers on youtube?
Maravillosa reconstrucción y excelente el haber mantenido la estructura principal. Ojalá más gente se anime hacer lo mismo y así poder rescatar los pueblos originales. Felicidades!!!
Destruyeron el 60% de la estructura principal.
I wonder if the job turned out to be a lot more work than you originally thought it would be. I am sure it will be absolutely beautiful when completed based on what you've shown so far. I admire your dedication to hard work and especially seeing your lady partner doing some heavy work! Kudos to her. Best wishes for the completion and the enjoyment of the home.
An incredible effort and truly Unbeleiveable amount of high quality labour and fabulous materials in this rebuild. Renovation would be an insult this is a ground up reconstruction!
Blood sweat and tears...what a hard and brilliant job. I really wished to be a part of it....be very very proud of urself guys! i loved to watch it! 🥰
Gracias, me ha encantado seguirles en este proyecto, promete ser un sitio muy especial, aunque lo más importante son las personas que lo construyen, lo aman y le dan vida. Muchas felicidades 🥂👌🙏
Muchas gracias Monica, por suportarnos desde el principio! 💞
Боже! Какая проведена огромная работа! Сколько сил и энергии вы потратили! Но удивительно красивое место! 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤ Молодцы!
Congratulations on the beautiful work you guys did with that house. Can't wait to see next video. Cheers!
The stone work was absolutely amazing to watch. Bravo!
I lost your channel some how and so glad I rediscoverd you! What an amazing load of work you have done!
She’s kind of wicked with that sledge hammer. You go girl! Awesome! What a helpmate!
I'm exhausted just waiting this video. I love old homes 🏡 it can be so much work. But impressive to watching the progress. 🎉
I feel exhausted just watching the video and seeing how much work you’ve put into it. Absolutely brilliant job. Stunning!! The transformation so far is amazing. Such hard work & dedication going into this beautiful dream home!! Enjoy watching and thanks for sharing!! Greetings from Netherland.
Watching this, I wondered if the concrete beam could hold the load, but then you added some block support. I also wondered about the structural integrity of the original house itself, but it seems to have held up. Amazing that it's dong so well, essentially with the force of gravity to hold it together. Anyway, it's a beautiful rebuild, true to the look of the original. So much money and work went into it. The result is great. There are so many similar buildings like this in the Baltic nations in need of repair/rebuild. It's great to see how this can be done.
Looks like a pile of rubble, but I’m not there to see if it’s as bad as it looks on camera.
That is what I'm thinking too, seeing that the diagonal beam seems a bit bends as he put more blocks on top. Oh well just to see it after years. Great hardworks
The best thing about european lifestyle : Stone houses and proper food !
"When you are in love, world its easy".....nice job !
Nice work, looking forward to seeing future progress. Congratulations to you both for the results so far.
Raramente mi capita di vedere un video di 45 minuti su YT senza saltare e soprattutto senza annoiarmi. Siete bravissimi e avete una visione. Che dire, congratulazioni!!!
Grazie mille!
As a certified forklift driver, i approve this renovation.
Very remarkable renovation that you have made👍. Please include in the description of about what was the history of this stone house, who owned it before etc.
Phenomenal Herculean effort. I lost 10 pounds watching the video. My grandfather on my mothers side was from northern Italy and came to the States at 21 and became a labor foreman who oversaw many concrete pours across his lifetime in heavy construction. I can honestly say if he saw this effort he would be impressed as am I.
Vous êtes allé jusqu'au bout, du courage , de la détermination et de la persévérance, je suis courageux à 79 ans je suis toujours au travail mais là je retire mon chapeau 🙏👍💗💗💗
This is Amazing to watch. House is Beautiful -
Tremenda fortaleza! Cuanto aislamiento térmico! Revalorización de la piedra. Muchísimas felicidades
Coplimenti !! You guys are great. HUGE work carried out in one year, not only the house but all the works around the land. You are exceptional .
Thank you so much! 🥲
Wow! You all broke it down to the bare bones. It is a beautiful structure.
I watched one or two of these until the back wall was removed and I panicked. I stopped watching for a while out of fear,then upon returning and realizing I had been a faithless fool I became devoted to your building and the astounding talent and scrupulous commitment you show. How good to see your journey and marvel again at the rebirth of this crumbled building that you have facilitated .I’ll bet quite a few people upon seeing you at the beginning were afraid for you. What idiots we have proven to be as you have gone from strength to strength never putting a foot wrong. May your life be as your rebuild is ,full of complete commitment and determination to build a strong invincible structure.That nothing you meet along your journey can be beyond your strength and ability to resolve ,and that you live your life with joy.❤
Thank you so much 🥰
Ammiro le persone come Voi che restaurano,ristrutturano gli edifici antichi.Bravi!
I’m so impatient….I LOVE these time lapse videos!!! 👍👍👍 What a spectacular view!!! 😍😍😍
Вы крутые! Сохранили архитектуру! ❤❤❤
Quel courage et quel savoir faire pour rénover ces vieilles maisons en respectant l'architecture traditionnelle tout en incluant des matériaux modernes .Félicitations c'est sublime..
Highly appreciated work 👍👍 You people converted impossible to possible 💐💐
Beautiful restoration of the old House. Really great hard work.
Thank you! ☺️
Как этот дом вообще до наших времен достоял? Стенки в один кирпич,тяжелая черепица на каких то досточках-ламелях вся прогибающаяся...Ребята молодцы!
Congratulations! So far job well done. It has been a hard, backbreaking time. In the end it will be well worth it. The soul of the house is coming back alive, where once it was dead. Alot of heart and soul went into it. When I was young I helped my father build two houses and renovated one. Can't wait for the next video to come out on the progress you have made. Well done ! God Bless 🤗
Как строитель я смотрел это видео с болью в сердце 💓 Очень много спорных решений, Но ☝️ если заказчика всё устраивает, тогда пускай будет так. А вид из окна конечно потрясающий 😁👍
Вот! Искала комент спеца. Обогреть каменный дом зимой как это возможно? По стенам интересны ваши мысли
Это похоже на Италию. Теплый и мягкий климат, не забывайте об этом
Incredible beyond words. And such talent for all things in the build from wood to stonecraft!
Wow 😮 ready for the next 200 years that’s what I call sustainability 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yes a complete rebuild....the stone walling and cladding that he did was fantastic. So much work it makes me tired just watching. Deffinitely a young persons game.
Excellent, just loved watching it, great balance between time lapse and real time. From my comfy seat I felt your pain and was with you all the way!
Check out Raising Voyagers on youtube
What a massive undertaking! Quality work, done to perfection! I love the stone pointing. Everything that you have accomplished in this video looks gorgeous. Thank you for recording it for us.
Definitely.
Благодарю за видео , оно замечательное . Всего доброго и светлого ВАМ желаю. Работа Великолепная !!!
So much love for this old, beautiful house!
Omg!.. i got tired (in a good way) just by watching the amount of work! 😳😱
Wow big job and it's coming along nicely. I love Italy.
Absolute stunning, congratulations on all the hard work, true workmanship can’t be beat, looking forward to next videos❤
Pretty seeing old original parts of the house being destroyed didn’t expect that
Absolutely fantastic. I would love to take an old building and restore it to its new glory. Loved this ❤️ 🏴
There are a lot of old buildings in Italy right now completely abandoned as a result of rapidly dying out population. Couple of years ago the Italian government put them on sale for 1 euro as long as you restore them within a given time limit. I seriously thought about it as a Cypriot, but I am alone to undertake such huge job and also I don't know Italian to get things moving. We have similar buildings here in Cyprus but they are not for sale for 1 euro as the grandchildren are still around who inherited them. I feel sorry for Italian population dying out. I feel affinity to the soil, architecture and the spirit. I hope more and more younger Italians restore their buildings and stop their culture dying. This is a huge topic to discuss here.
Congratulations on such a wonderful rebuild to you both .The stone facade looks fantastic and is blended in with the old building so well. My husband and I have done 13 renovations in southern part of Australia, unfortunately we don't have such beautiful stone buildings, where we live was colonised in 1800s and most were in timber or brick.
13 renovations! wow 😅
Watched this again. Jesus Christ that’s beautiful.
This is the house that Jack built. This is the malt that lay in the house that Jack built.😁👍
Wspaniała rekonstrukcja gratuluję duży nakład pracy i trudny teren do budowy domu ale daliście radę .Pozdrawiam Paweł.
I have just discovered your channel & having watched this Timelapse have subscribed without hesitation What you have achieved is nothing short of a miracle Your home is and will be fantastic… Sending warm regards from England Andrew 💜💐
Thank you! We are glad you like it! 🤗
me too! no hesitation.
I'm blown away. Can't wait to see the finished home.
At first i thought this was a total teardown. But I see it coming together now. And that view…thats what youre trying to save.
Extraordinary! I hope you'll do an interior video eventually!
Incrível, vocês dois estão de parabéns, uma parceria para toda vida!
Grazie!
