AIA Italy Section Event this spring in Florence and Tuscany June 19-21, 2026 will focus on a restoration project our very own members are brining to life! EX Church and Villa Santo Stefano alle Corti: Adaptive Reuse of a Designated Historic Property is a personal project by two AIA-CE-Italy members, Royce and Steve. They have taken on multiple roles—owners, investors,  developers,  architects,  operators, and project managers—to guide the property’s revival with input from a team of specialized consultants. They are directly shaping every stage of the villa’s transformation, combining design vision with long-term stewardship of the property. They will give us insight into their process and a sneak-peak at their villa before it officially opens this fall as a hot spot event venue! Please come join us for this special behind the scenes tour, and professional engagement!
