Designed by Andrew Trotter, an architect and founder of Openhouse Magazine, for his friend Carlo Lanzini, Masseria Moreseta is located on a 12-acre olive grove in Ostuni, Italy.  Using local materials, traditional building methods, and details from the local architecture, Trotter has created a modern take on the classic regional masserie. The good news: Lanzini rents out the six suites that open onto private courtyards to visitors; go to Masseria Moreseta for information.
