Designing and Transforming Exceptional Homes in Tuscany

For many international buyers, purchasing a property in Tuscany is only the beginning of an exciting journey. Turning a historic farmhouse, a luxury villa or a prestigious apartment into the home they envision requires local expertise, technical knowledge and careful project management.

Tuscany Architect was created to provide international property owners with a trusted architectural partner throughout every stage of their project.

We specialize in architectural design, renovation projects, planning permissions and technical consultancy for prestigious residential properties across Lucca, Versilia and Tuscany.

Local Expertise with an International Approach

I am Francesco Bianchini, an Italian Architect, Engineer and Building Surveyor based in Lucca, Tuscany.

For nearly two decades I have been assisting both Italian and international clients with architectural projects, renovation permits, technical consultancy and property-related services.

Working directly with overseas property owners has allowed me to understand not only the Italian technical regulations, but also the expectations of international clients who value clear communication, transparency and professional guidance throughout the entire process.

Every project receives my personal attention from the initial consultation to its completion.
